His name is Gino D’Acampo, and he is a chef from Campania, author of cookbooks that have become best-sellers in Great Britain. Known for his television appearances in programs such as This Morning and the success of his British restaurants, Chef D’Acampo recently wrote a new book, The Italian Diet , with the participation of British dietician Juliette Kellow.

Book that with its recipes inspired by the Mediterranean tradition is gaining great popularity .

But what is the book about?
It is a book with one hundred recipes inspired by the Italian culinary tradition but with dietary and low-calorie ingredients.
And two diet plans, one for 1500 and the other for 2000 calories, to lose weight in health. But this is not simply a book for weight loss. This is a book that aims to teach you about the best habits aimed at weight loss.
For all those who live abroad but want to eat in the Mediterranean style, here’s where to buy the book.

The suggested 1500 calorie plan of the Italian Diet for example is the following.
