The Wine Lover’s Healthy Weight Loss Plan
Now there's a heart-healthy weight loss program that lets you enjoy the benefits of your cherished Chardonnay
For some time the media has been abuzz with news of the health benefits of wine, but until now there has been no authoritative source for those interested in making wine part of a healthy diet. Coauthored by a noted cardiologist and an award-winning chef, The Wine Lover's Healthy Weight Loss Plan shows how you can easily shed unwanted pounds, while maximizing the health benefits of your favorite wines.
Sample recipes include:
- Scampi with Chipotle-Orange Sauce, paired with a 2004 Marquis-Philips "Holly's Blend," Verdelho, McLaren Vale, Australia
- Roast Duck with Lavender-Lemon Honey Sauce, paired with a Bergstrom Winery 2004 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
Customer Review: Not just for wine lovers
In my business, I receive a lot of requests for endorsements, but accept only those I deem the best. And I jumped on this request immediately. It could not be more appropriate for my audience.
I agree with the reviewer from Seattle who described this as a great reference book - both for its informed health information and its storehouse of healthy gourmet recipes (no those are NOT compatible).
Not just for wine lovers? No, this is a great source book for those wondering whether wine can be beneficial to their health. The answer is yes it is beneficial, if consumed daily and in moderation. And that's good news for all of us.

Customer Review: Informational and realistic
Being an active and health conscious individual, I was looking for a realistic weight loss plan that would suit my urban lifestyle. After reading the "Wine Lovers..." I've found what I was looking for. This book provides a food and wine education surrounding the lifestyle choices of those in the Mediterranean. The "Wine Lovers..." author(s) are passionate, well-informed, and educated. Their enthusiasm for food and wine spills gracefully onto the pages of this book. The "Wine Lovers..." also boasts quality recipes far above the standard for diet books. It's like having a gourmet cookbook inside a diet book! I urge anyone who is looking for a lifestyle change, trying to lose weight, or who simply desires the richness and fulfillment of wine to consider this book for purchase.
