Join Top Nutritionist Stella Metsovas to Discover Cooking a Paleo Diet with a Mediterranean Twist

Orange County, California (PRWEB) January 06, 2012

Join top Nutritionist Stella Metsovas as she heats up the kitchen at Bloomingdales, South Coast Plaza. Metsovas will be demonstrating how one can please their palate and improve their health, with an authentic and delicious Paleo Diet Mediterranean meal.

Named “One of America’s Health Experts” by Woman’s Day magazine, Metsovas is regularly featured in top media outlets such as People, Shape, Glamour, AOL, New York Times and more. Through eight years of research in her private practice, Metsovas has created an entirely unique diet method ? the Paleo Mediterranean diet. It is the first of its kind as it stems from the roots of human DNA and incorporates Mediterranean principles that are essential for health.

The Paleolithic diet consists of grass-fed meat, free-range fowl or wild-caught fish, seasonal fruits and vegetables, and generous portions of healthy fats ? including nuts, seeds, avocados, olive oil and coconut oil. Grains, legumes, dairy products, sugar, vegetable oils and processed foods are absent from this diet. In essence, it?s what man ate millions of years ago before the dawn of agriculture.

The Paleo diet has been shown to have a host of heath benefits; including it?s proven success in patients with type 2 diabetes. During a 3-month study comparing a Paleolithic diet and a Diabetes diet, the Paleo diet better improved glycemic control and several cardiovascular risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Join Stella on January 14th at Bloomingdales, South Coast Plaza, as she demonstrates how to create her phenomenal low-carb Paleo Moussaka. It is sure to be an afternoon of culinary education and delightful surprises; attendees will also have the chance to win a free FDA Approved Metabolic Test.

Mediterranean & Low Carb Diets Are Alternative to Low Fat Diets

A news media feeding frenzy erupted recently when a new diet study broke in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM). Almost all the reporters got it wrong, wrong WRONG! So did most of the gloating low carb forumites and bloggers. Come to think of it, almost everyone interpreted this study wrong. Some valuable insights came out of this study, but almost everyone missed them because they were too busy believing what the news said or defending their own cherished belief systems …

The new study, titled, “Weight Loss With a Low-Carbohydrate, Mediterranean, or Low-Fat Diet” was published in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) in issue 359, number 3.

I quickly read the full text of the research paper the day it was published. Then, I shook my head in dismay as I scanned the news headlines.

I found it amusing that the media turned this into a three ring circus, putting a misleading “low carb versus high carb,” “Atkins vindicated” or “Diet wars” spin on the story. But that’s mainstream journalism for you, right? Gotta sell those papers!

Just look at some of these headlines:

“Study Tips Scales in Atkins Diets Favor: Low Carb Regimen Better Than Low Fat Diet For Weight And Cholesterol, Major Study Shows. “
“Low-Carb and Low-Fat Diets Face Off “

“The Never-Ending Diet Wars”

Why is The Mediterranean Diet Getting So Much Attention?

(PRWEB) October 7, 2005

It’s frequently a big task trying to identify which is the best diet to get started with. Often for different reasons. Many people have tried a number of diets which worked but was too bland to continue with long term.

Most people perhaps need a diet to help them lose weight but aren’t quite sure which one to choose. Others are concerned with heart or cancer issues. For these people, this resource is a good place to start.

Many people are swinging over to the Mediterranean Diet mainly due to plausible reasons such as research outcomes, long term evidence, focused studies dedicated to just that one region of the globe and a history of a low incidence of heart disease and cancer. That’s a good start.

This new resource places a lot of important focus on explaining the diet and comparing it to what has already been tried along with researched evidence to support the information. It’s thorough, easy to read and apply. It’s also supported with recipes from the Mediterranean region. It does not claim to be a new breakthrough. It can’t, simply because the Mediterranean Diet has been here for centuries, making it easier to research. The many countries bordering the Mediterranean have contributed to the versatile diet and by default, have made it one of the most tasty diets yet.

The information comes in a package style and is downloadable. Which means no one has to wait for the post. This diet is one that has proven to be safe and one that has a history of favorable evidence. It’s worth looking at closely.
