There are many diet and nutrition books out there with similar messages and themes. This book doesn’t give any bad advice, but doesn’t say anything new. Count calories, eat fish/lean meat, low fat dairy, whole grains, fruits and vegetables, olive oil, nuts, and exercise at least a 1/2 hour per day. That’s it – now you don’t have to buy the book. If you don’t know how many calories you need, go to the new food pyramid website. If you want some free easy recipes, go to the Cooking Light website.

There is so much knowledge in these books about the Mediterranean Diet. This is not a “diet” but a way of life. This is how I grew up eating and just got away from it and am so sorry that I did. I’ve taken to eating “junk” like most everyone else. This is a very healthy way of eating and very easy and full of flavors in everything you eat. To have to chose between eating this way and the “American” way the Mediterranean way would win hands down every time.

This is the best diet book I have ever read. It is clear, positive, informative and gives you a great consistent motivation. It is healthy and changes your whole attitude toward eating with common sense, easy to understand scientific and medical facts. Some of the images and helps I will never forget.
