Named after California’s beautiful Sonoma County and inspired by the life and food of the Mediterranean, the Sonoma Diet offers a delightful way to shed pounds.

This is not a ”diet”. Rather it is a lifestyle which includes delicious and wholesome fresh foods - vegetables, whole grains, nuts, olive oil, lean meats, cheese and even wine. 

Imagine you are on the Italian Riviera or the vineyards of Tuscany. This lifestyle will take you away. You will learn to really enjoy your food, instead of viewing meals as an inconvenience to be hurried through. Don’t let your busy schedule prevent you from enjoying one of life’s true pleasures. 

The Sonoma Diet will show you how to adopt a healthy eating style that will soon become second nature. You will learn which foods to eat and why as you savor the right foods in the right amounts.

Uncork that Merlot, and try the sumptious Sonoma Diet lifestyle. You will feel results in as little as 10 days. Experience food, wine and weightloss!

Wow! That’s great! 

Look in the grocery store these days and labels scream, “Natural Ingredients,” “Low Fat”, “No Trans Fats.” 

I picked up a pack of Lay’s Sour Cream and Onion Potato Chips the other day. They were very proud to admit that they were “Made with 100% Pure Sunflower Oil,” and contain “0 grams Trans Fats.” 

Look at the ingredients and what do you see? “Nonfat Milk Solids…Monosodium Glutamate,…Partially Hydrogenated Soybean and Cottonseed Oil… Artificial Flavor…” 

• Nonfat Milk. What is wrong with that? Nothing, except I’ve never seen a nonfat cow. Have you? Can you say processed? Not to mention the bovine growth hormone (and accompanying pus) that is almost certainly present. Alright, the chips never claimed they were unprocessed. Never said they were low fat either.

• Monosodium Glutamate. Wasn’t that flavor enhancer and preservative outlawed? Every Chinese restaurant I visit proudly exclaims that they are MSG Free. MSG is an excitotoxin. Don’t eat it.

• Partially Hydrogenated Soybean and Cottonseed Oil. WAIT, what?!? You just told me that there were ZERO grams of trans fats. Partially hydrogenated anything IS a trans fat. Stay away from this. Your body was not designed to handle man-made fats.

• Artificial Flavor. Stay away from artificial ingredients. Whether it is color or flavor, it was not intended for healthy human consumption.

Bottom line… Read the fine print (ingredients) before you trust any food. Better yet, stay away from processed foods. They were not designed with your best interests in mind.

After all, their shelf life will probably exceed yours.
