    Ever wondered why the Med diet is so healthy, and how to incorporate it into your daily life? This book provides the answers. Cutting-edge science by a leading authority reveals surprising links between Med foods and health, such as how goat's cheese may help prevent Alzheimer's disease; how eating a Med diet reduces the cancer risk from drinking alcohol; and why the way we cook is so important for health. More Healthy Years also explains the real reasons why it is so important to avoid highly processed foods - the antithesis of the Med diet. It transforms the science into a huge range of practical tips to overcome the barriers of our obesogenic environment and eat tasty, healthy Mediterranean food every day, at no extra cost. Drawing on the evidence that what's good for the person is also good for the planet, the book concludes with a persuasive argument for a more ecologically-based farming system.

      5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book describing the scientific evidence for the benefits of the Mediterranean Diet
      Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 February 2021
      Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
      Dr Richard Hoffman explains the science behind the Mediterranean Diet in a systematic way and with great authority. The book is essential reading for anyone with an interest in evidence based nutrition, and certainly should be on the curriculum for any health professionals who want to be able to describe the proven benefits of the diet to their patients. The narrative is compelling as the chapters describe the harms of industrial methods of food production and contrasts this with a sustainable agricultural model in the Mediterranean Diet. An excellent book. Thoroughly recommended.

      5.0 out of 5 stars A healthy diet for a longer life
      Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 June 2022
      Format: Paperback
      This fascinating 'tour de force' is a fruit of Richard Hoffman’s extensive teaching and research experience as a nutritionist, as well as his work in the fields of cancer biology and the use of natural products for preventing and treating disease. The fifteen chapters of this 450 page treatise cover a comprehensive range of key topics, including the building blocks of a healthy diet, the health risks of the increasing reliance on industrialised ultra processed foods (UPFs) and junk food, the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet, the carbon cycle and greenhouse gases, sustainable farming, and agroecology. In every respect a comprehensively researched academic text, with hundreds of cited sources and references, and an extensive index, Hoffman’s style of writing is very engaging and convivial, and scattered with memorable aphorisms (e.g. “the colon is the compost heap of the body”, “out of the fryer and into the fire”). The chapters on the specifics of the Mediterranean diet - chapter 12 on key ingredients and food groups and chapter 13 on home cooking - provide useful practical guidelines, including one dear to my own heart, on the benefits of red wine (in moderation, of course, and with food).

      In my opinion, this book is such a valuable resource that it should be required reading on the curricula of all courses in nutrition and food science.
