It’s called The Big Fat Fix , and I don’t know if we’ll ever see it in Italy, although it also addresses the theme of the Mediterranean diet. Which, according to the new studies, is to be rewarded as long as it encourages the use of fats and not carbohydrates (high fat Mediterranean diet), and in this way fights diabetes, cardiovascular risks and even very serious diseases thanks to foods such as olive oil, eggs , nuts and avocados.

In short, we start from a thesis opposite to that which we have always been taught and which derived from the studies of Ancel Keys: less pasta and carbohydrates in general such as rice, pizza, bread, less sugars in general and instead more fats such as olive oil, quality and local butter and cheeses, nuts and eggs, fatty fish, olives and avocados. According to cardiologist Aseem Malhotra, who would have visited Pioppi from Salerno to find confirmation of his studies, the diet to stay healthy must have these characteristics:
– have very few carbohydrates : yes to fruit and vegetables, no to rice, pasta, pizza or cereals o potatoes from morning to evening
