“It has been known for some time that Mediterranean villagers have a far lower rate of heart disease and cancer than do we of the industrial West. Now the World Health Organization has found clear evidence that it is their traditional diet that shields them from these two devastating diseases. Wine, whole grains (usually bread or pasta), olive oil, dark green vegetables, fruit, garlic, and onions have been their staples for millennia. Only recently has research isolated the specific protective qualities of their diet. The McConnells offer a summary of the research and its findings; advice on incorporating this delicious, protective diet into daily life; menus and recipes with clear cooking instructions; and hints on adopting the low-stress lifestyle of the Mediterranean. This book presents a dramatic breakthrough in the search for health, life, and happiness.” BOOK JACKET.
