Everyone should eat this way September 13, 2009 D. Upchurch (TN) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I was impressed that this diet can truly turn your health around. The descriptions of food and all the vitamin benefits made me realize that every time I eat fresh food, I am doing something good for myself. For years, I was looking at good food as 'diet food,' and unfortunately gravitated to processed 'fun' food. I now no longer experience the constant lethargy that I had in my teens and twenties. I realize that candy (except dark chocolate), soda, ice cream, and cake will make me literally feel ill. I wasn't connecting my diet with energy. I was only interested in losing weight no matter the cost. I'm so glad to always keep the Mediterranean diet as a way of life. My Greek grandfather lived to be 102 and said "I eat a little of everything." It's true that he may have sampled all kinds of food, no matter the nutritional content, but I know that 90% of his diet was fruit, meat, vegetables, herbs, and whole grains. My grandmother also used some white rice and white flour, but the majority of daily foods were simple and fresh. She lived to almost 90. I think eggs are an excellent, clean source of protein. I see no reason to limit them.
Did not find the diet easy to follow. September 9, 2009 S. Beasley 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is not for a person that likes a diet that is simple and easy to follow. Their are recipes in the book but they are not simple. I think with people having very busy schedules they want a diet plan that has a easy menu plan and recipes with five ingredients or less.
