In Search of the Perfect Diet

Volume 1, Apr 2012

Roger L. White; MD Hawaii, USA

 Just a couple of months ago I was on vacation in southern Italy. My wife and I were staying on the little volcanic  island of Ischia just off the coast from Naples. We were staying in a quaint little family-run hotel right on the beach. It was a gorgeous sunny October day with bright blue skies. We spent the day swimming in the crisp clear blue ocean in front of our hotel and walking over the hillsides in the olive groves enjoying countryside. It was a near perfect day. Now was the best part of the day – dinner. We were to have dinner at the restaurant run by the same family that operated our small hotel. We were ravenously hungry after our day’s activities and ready for the perfect Mediterranean meal.
