hi do you recommend the mediterranean diet book?

Enrico April 24, 2009 at 10:34 am

Yes Gabriel, it’s a good book to have a clear look on the Mediterranean diet

How to keep a long story short? In all that I’ve read, I sum it up this way. Any diet or food consumption and lifestyle (exercise) that supports a neutral 7.2 pH blood factor in your body will keep your life healthy and beautiful.

I haven’t purchased the diet book/cook book, therefore I have a question. In the free Diet Menu I received, there are several occasions to eat dried fruit. I can’t stomach dried fruit, so what can I eat in its’ place?

Enrico February 10, 2010 at 10:12 pm

Harriet are you intolerant or allergic?

Harriet February 13, 2010 at 6:24 am

I’m making the 15-bean soup from the free Diet Menu, shouldn’t you be adding additional water after draining in order to make the soup. The only liquid ingredients being added in the receipe are the canned tomatoes and 1tsp of lemon juice…not enough to make a soup.

Enrico February 14, 2010 at 12:05 am

Sure Harriet you can add water to make the soup, some times it requires only the water released by tomatoes and some times you’ll need to add water.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Just found your site, love it and the menus as I am just starting on the mediterranean diet. One question please, what do you think about diet drinks? I drink maybe a couple a week. Thanks and thanks also for your site.

Enrico March 7, 2010 at 10:47 pm

Sandy thanks for your comment.

Generally I don’t like diet drinks because I prefer milk shakes with fresh fruit. (My favorite is milk, honey, banana, apple and pear).

Warm regards

Thank you for your email and we are very much apprieciate it. So how can we help each other to educate more people about Natural Health care?

Jim T June 29, 2010 at 6:54 am

I would like to start enjoying this diet and lifestyle, however, I do not like fish. What would be the alternative of having that much fish per week. Also it looks kind of expensive.

debbie July 31, 2010 at 10:09 am

I am interested in learning more about the Med. plan. It’s a very nice and informative
site.
But, I don’t know for sure what I am suppose to do next?

Milan August 6, 2010 at 12:57 pm

I am a Holistic Health Practitioner who would love t o direct my clients towards Mediterranean Cuisine. I have always felt that this way of eating was extremely healthy and I have tried to live by it most of my life except for during my apprenticeship in Culinary school, then it became difficult. I look forward to what you have to offer. Thank you for creating this site and for sharing.

Becky August 13, 2010 at 12:07 pm

Enrico August 15, 2010 at 8:36 pm
