Mediterranean Diet: A Practical Guide and Recipes for Weight Loss and Healthy Eating (Revised)
The Only Healthy Diet that Can Change Your Life Forever
The Mediterranean Diet is more than just a “diet,†it is a healthy way of life that emphasizes fresh, whole foods, and moderate amounts of dairy foods and healthy fats. Different from a vegetarian or vegan diet, the Mediterranean Diet does not restrict meat completely but rather reduces the amount that is consumed on average. Even though red meat is virtually eliminated, lean cuts of chicken are part of many of the best recipes included in the plan. Not only that, fish is encouraged at least twice a week as well. It is one of the most flexible diet plans out of all of the major diet plans. But more importantly, it is also one of the most flavorful and one of the healthiest. That combination alone makes this one of the easiest types of diets to follow without ever feeling deprived or missing out on vital nutrients in the process.
Mediterranean diet is not a fad diet that you will be miserable on and quitting after two weeks. This is a chance to make a real change in your entire life, a way of eating and living that can be yours for the rest of your life. And with the improved health that you will have from following this type of plan, it will be a long and happy life.
