How to control your weight being happy

Have you heard someone speaking about the Fashion Week lately? Yes ok it's everywhere and lots of events are popping up here and there especially in London! So why we are speaking about it here too? Just because like every year this events won't just bring attention to the fashion world and the glamour, but to the beauty, and the models too of course! Thin? too thin? Starving size zero? Is this something to show to the teenagers? Is this a good example to give to people? Is this the beauty?

Let me share a secret with you: everyone can be fat or thin how much he/she wants, and the designers can use all the type of models they want, but the reality is that we all need to learn how to eat not how to diet and what is healthy and good for our body, what it make us happier or not.

In Italy too everyone is always speaking about diet, but the reality is that we have less junk food, we eat more at home and we have a great variety of products and a big culinary history. The famous Mediterranean Diet comes exactly from this: "it’s a modern nutritional recommendation inspired by the traditional dietary patterns of poor coastal regions of southern Italy, Crete, and Greece in the 1960's” (Wikipedia).  The principal aspects of this diet include high olive oil consumption, high consumption of legumes, high consumption of unrefined cereals, high consumption of fruits, high consumption of vegetables, moderate consumption of dairy products (mostly as cheese and yogurt), moderate to high consumption of fish, low consumption of meat and meat products, and moderate wine consumption.

 On top of that, everyone in Italy is more or less able to cook a plate of pasta and it’s just this that can save your line. Do you want something quick and easy, something that can fulfill you being healthy? Pasta is the best answer always. And the pasta in the right dose and cooked at home with a light sauce can be the secret of each diet and size control, giving you all the energy and beauty and even the concentration you want and need!

And because I know this is also the time of the year where after holiday everyone try to lose the pounds collected in the summer, here is the tip for you to follow: eat complex carbs ( like pasta and bread ) to control your weight and enjoy eating!

Why do you think the Mediterranean diet has been proposed to be part of the Unesco's list of "intangible" cultural heritage?
