Imagine your great‑grandfather seeing a "normal" breakfast from nowadays: a bowl of neon‑colored ultraprocessed cereal floating in almond milk that somehow contains no actual almonds. He’d stare at it like it was radioactive. He’d sniff it. He’d poke it. And then he’d probably lie back down and say, “You know what, I’ve seen enough. Put me back.” The wild part is that we’ve normalized it. We call it “healthy,” “light,” “quick,” “plant‑based,” “fortified,” “balanced.” But deep down, we know that if someone from 1900 walked into a modern supermarket breakfast aisle, they’d assume it was a prank. Maybe the real question isn’t what they’d think of our breakfast. Maybe it’s what we think of it—now that we’ve stepped back and looked at it through their eyes. And eat real foods, as we still have access to them. So, my dear people, let's swift a little bit how we start the day. I challenge you to eat real foods for breakfast. Today is Blue Monday, the saddest day of the year, they say. Let's make it a happy Monday by having a real breakfast: an omelet with a slice of whole grain bread and a hadful of rocket salad. Depending on your hight, age and weight, increase the quantity to your needs. Small change, big results. Share a photo with your breakfast for the next 7 days and you might win a copy of my ebook Ten Forgetten Medieterranean Superfoods and How to Use Them

Swap THIS for THAT (Inflammation Edition) Instead of ................................Refined White Sugar Try this..................................... Raw Local Honey (or Manuka) Why? .......................................Contains polyphenols and enzymes that support gut health. White sugar is a "pure" inflammatory trigger. It provides empty calories that fuel pathogenic bacteria in the gut, leading to increased intestinal permeability (leaky gut) and systemic inflammation. In contrast, Raw Honey—specifically Manuka—contains compounds like methylglyoxal and various antioxidants that actually help dampen the inflammatory response. While it is still a sugar and should be used mindfully, it brings medicinal properties to the table rather than just metabolic stress. I know there is a loooot of talk about sugar on every level and on every platform. But what I don´t like are the extremes: eliminate sugar for good (including not eating fresh fruit) or defent sugar as it is in everything. Moderation is key, at the end of the day. Our diet shouldn´t be a perfect but ballanced, enjoyable and shared. Live long and prosper! 😀

Yesterday a patient of mine asked why should we fight inflammation. Is it a good thing? And I realized that many people know about anti-inflammatory diets and foods before understading what inflammation is. So, do we have to fight it? In simple words, there is acute inflammation (good) and chronic inflammation (bad). The acute inflammation is a natural response of our body when faced with a patogen (bacteria, virus etc) or a physical trauma (you cut your finger while cooking). This type of inflammation is easily recognizable: heat, redness, pain. The chronic inflammation is when the body fights an invisible "possible" enemy, so no symptoms, no clear signs, however it is called chronic for a reason: it lasts for weeks, months or even years until one realize it is there. We have to fight this one! So here where an anti-inflammatory diets comes at hand. You can find more about in the free couse (Check Classroom). Have a great weekend and enjoy your food !

I have to put this book here even if it has no direct link to Anti-Inflammatory lifestyle. But, it has to do with the Mediterranean Lifestyle. There are many people from the UK and the US asking about various aspects of moving to Spain. What visas they need, how to proceed, where is the best place to be in Spain and so on. Well, this guide is just that: what are the main hurdles, especially bureaucratic when moving, where to start and I have even added how to fill in the main forms required to obtain the residency in Spain. So, if you think about moving to Spain, this book is for you. You can find it here
