Author: Emilia Klapp
Book Description: Every 34 seconds...
an American dies of heart disease! Will you be next? Learn the age old secrets practiced by Mediterraneans to keep the threat of heart disease at bay. Unless you set out to take control of your body to lower the risk of having a heart attack or stroke, you might not reach old age. Or even if you do, you might not enjoy the best possible health. Is that the path you want for your future? If you have one or more health conditions such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol and triglycerides which place you at risk for cardiovascular disease, don't assume modern medicine has all the answers for you... ...because it doesn't. After I got a bachelor degree in Nutrition Science and became certified as a Registered Dietitian by the American Dietetic Association, I realized that writing Your Heart Needs the Mediterranean Diet was a must. Why?
Because I was born and raised in Spain and I have experienced all the health benefits a Mediterranean diet and lifestyle have to offer. On the other side of the spectrum, and like you, I constantly see around me the devastating effects of today's Western diet and Western lifestyle.
So, with all these concerns in mind, THIS is what I wrote: - A book that reveals to you the secrets of the powerful effects the Mediterranean diet and lifestyle can have in your health. It brings you what centuries of experience, as well as recent scientific research, has proven to be the best possible defense from these deadly diseases.
- A book that shows you that a healthy lifestyle does not have to mean deprivation or sacrifices. Is it really possible to enjoy a delicious meal that is also healthy? Of course! People in the Mediterranean countries do it all the time and they are notorious for being among the healthiest people on earth.
- A book that provides you with tasty and easy to prepare recipes. In the book you'll find easy to prepare recipes to get you introduced to a truly Mediterranean diet.
Here is what the Book will Specifically do for You:
I wrote Your Heart Needs the Mediterranean Diet in an innovative and simple-to-follow dialogue format. Al, a fictional patient and Emi, the Dietitian, embark on a journey to reverse Al's high blood pressure and high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides.
As you join Al in his path to good health, you will learn among other things: - what foods to avoid
- what foods are best for you to eat
- the difference between good fats and bad fats
- how to include foods such as garlic, tomatoes, and olive oil into your cooking so that you benefit from their medicinal properties
- how to prepare very easy and palate-tantalizing recipes such as minestrone soup, homemade spaghetti sauce, ratatouille, and many others, which will prove that eating with health in mind does not mean eating without flavor
- how easy is to introduce more physical activity into your daily busy schedule
- discover how to improve relationships with your family, friends, and coworkers
As you progress with the chapters and implement the knowledge acquired throughout the book, you will be able to decrease your risk of heart disease, spend more time with your family, friends and your community, and reduce stress at work. You will realize that you are becoming happier and healthier by following the Mediterranean lifestyle!
On top of this, you will also learn how to: - decrease your risk of heart disease
- discover how to find more time to spend with your family, friends and your community
- reduce stress at work
- learn about the sinister connection between high blood pressure and processed foods
- learn how certain Mediterranean foods can lower cholesterol
- know the reasons why fruits and vegetables are so important
- learn why olive oil is "liquid gold" in terms of our diet
- see why garlic can protect us from more than vampires
By the end of the book you will realize that you are becoming happier and healthier!
This book will also empower you with the knowledge to contribute to your family and friends' health and happiness. Isn't it wonderful? According to statistics from the World Health Organization, Mediterraneans have almost half as many deaths from cardiovascular disease as Americans. Thus, if the Mediterranean diet has worked for its people for centuries in warding off many of the chronic diseases that plague us now, why not copy it? And that's exactly what the book proposes. So, Here is what I Want You to Do Next: Order the book and start right now your road to health and happiness.
