Dr Hilary of gm-tv in Ita
DID YOU SEE Dr Hilary on gm-tv this morning? He was in Italy, lucky person. Where else would he be to make a serious point about heart disease? Italy has the lowest incidence of cardiac disease of any western country and the reasons are very clear.
In Italy, they use the best cholesterol-busting olive oil (instead of cholesterol-increasing dairy products or the awful killer trans-fats in highly manufactured spreads - yes, even the ones which claim healthiness -here in UK) sometimes lots of courses at a meal but always small portions, and crucially, only moderate quantities of alcohol. Oh, and their love of true romance with all the stress relieving hand-holding and cuddling which that implies. Small wonder that the Italians are among the healthiest, sexiest and most stylish people on the planet!
