The Secret Sicilian Diet Plan" is not just another diet book. It's a portal to a lifestyle enriched by the ancestral wisdom and the vibrant flavors of Sicilian cuisine. This book is our invitation to you to embark on a remarkable journey through Sicily – a land steeped in history, passion, and culinary richness.
Sicily, often referred to as the "umbilicus mundi" (belly button of the world), has long been at the epicenter of human history, fiercely guarding recipes passed down orally and in writing for generations. These recipes, born from Sicily's fertile volcanic soil, abundant sunshine, and bountiful seas, are not just about taste but about nourishing the body and soul.
As physicians, my wife Sandra and I have always believed that nutrition is the cornerstone of health and longevity. This belief is a family affair – our daughter, a nutritionist; our son, a permaculture farmer; and his wife, a physician, all advocate for the power of food and lifestyle changes in promoting health.
Sicily is a land of centenarians and supercentenarians – individuals who have lived beyond 100 and 110 years, respectively. Our experiences with patients, coupled with our study of the diets and lifestyles of Sicilian centenarians, have solidified our conviction: There is a way of eating and living that not only promotes health but also offers a more joyous and fulfilling experience of life.
Inspired by this profound understanding, we created 'Healthy to 100'. This supplement is our solution for those who may find it challenging to consistently consume complete meals of the Mediterranean diet. 'Healthy to 100' encapsulates all the nutritional benefits of this diet in a convenient form, ensuring that even those with busy lifestyles can enjoy the health-giving properties of Sicilian cuisine. Our book, "The Secret Sicilian Diet Plan," and our supplement, 'Healthy to 100', are more than products; they are testaments to a legacy of health and a promise of longevity. They represent a lifestyle that cherishes each meal as a celebration of life and wellness. Join us in this delicious and healthful journey, and embrace a way of living that has nourished generations.
Our Mission
Our joint mission, embedded in the wisdom of centenarians from Sicily, is to guide you towards an enhanced health span and longevity through a sustainable and enjoyable lifestyle. We believe in the uniqueness of each individual's story and the impact of their environment and lifestyle on their health. Our approach is to tailor care that respects and responds to these unique needs, ensuring optimal health through nature's best offerings. Join us in embracing a life of vitality, where food is not just nourishment but a joyful journey to health and longevity.
