Riassunto

With The Longevity Diet, Valter Longo showed us how food is an indispensable ally for a long and healthy life, and that it really is possible to reduce the risk of range of age-related diseases, by combining a good normal diet with a periodic fasting-mimicking diet. In this book, Longo updates readers on the results of his latest research and accompanies us on a journey to discover the longest-living regions of Italy.

Longo has identified more than 10 districts in and around Italy with extraordinary longevity, and studied their traditional dishes to find out what foods the older inhabitants habitually consumed over the last 100 years. His studies also offer interesting insights into the history of food on the Italian Peninsula and the Mediterranean Area, starting with the Etruscans, 3000 years ago. This book comes as an invitation to bring the stories of our ancestors and centenarians to the table, for a deeper understanding of how they actually lived.

The Valter Longo Foundation decided to translate this book, originally published in Italian, into English to offer an international audience the possibility to delve into the search for longevity, healthy recipes, and the history and culinary traditions of the Mediterranean area and Italy.

The volume includes 200 traditional recipes.
