Lauren Smith: What is your book about? Your Heart Needs .... Emilia Klapp: Your Heart Needs the Mediterranean Diet is about preventing and reversing high cholesterol, high triglycerides and high blood pressure. The book is written in a dialogue format. Al, the patient, is referred by his doctor to the dietitian because he has the three health conditions mentioned above, which put him at risk for a heart attack or stroke. The dietitian guides the patient on the principles of the Mediterranean Diet, a diet that for centuries has protected people in the Mediterranean region from many chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and obesity. However, the book is not only about eating healthy, which of course contributes to our health, but about a way of life. Al learns how to include physical activity into his life with little effort; he finds ways to include his children more into his life and share activities with them, as well as with his wife. He learns how to cook. Even his dog is happier with the new way of life.
