"Today, there’s proof and numbers supporting a Mediterranean diet for heart health. A recent study shows that about 30 percent of heart risks can be prevented by adopting a diet rich in monounsaturated fats. These findings, published on The New England Journal of Medicine’s website, are based on the first major clinical trial to measure the Mediterranean diet’s effect on heart risks."

Nelson,

I am fortunate to live close to the heart of the best Mid-Eastern restaurants in the U.S. I have countless restaurants to choose from within 10 minutes of my house.
