Some of you may not be aware that along with food and wine, another one of my passions is health, particularly healthy eating.  I have spent many years studying diet and its affect on aging, disease prevention, and overall health.  So, I am very excited to be developing a program to promote a healthy diet, regular exercise and stress management. Our Tuesday tasting will be a "heads up" introduction to the program we will be launching this winter, after all the holiday indulgence!  This will be a 12 week program in which Savour and Beach Gourmet will be providing all food (plant-based, fresh, whole food, with a bit of meat), counseling, an exercise program, and instruction to help individuals who want to lose weight and get healthy.  We will be taking 12 people and I will go along with the program too.  We are very fortunate to have Dr. Marcus Marlowe, formerly of the Mayo Clinic, who specializes in treating illnesses such as diabetes and heart disease with diet, as our medical advisor.  What could be better than having all your meals prepared for you by an excellent personal chef under the direction of a highly-specialized physician while getting healthy and losing weight?!  We will be holding an informational meeting with Dr. Marlowe soon.  If you are interested in learning more, just email and let me know.
