What's Included in the Mediterranean Masterclass:
Mediterranean Wisdom: Straight from the Source
I recently traveled to Greece, immersing myself in the traditional Mediterranean lifestyle.
Along the way, I had the privilege of sharing meals and stories with Greece's vibrant older generations, gaining valuable insights into their timeless wisdom on living well. Now, I'm excited to share my findings with you.
The word diet comes from the Greek word diaita, which means “way of life.” For many people following a diet translates to restriction or weight loss or following a rigid list of “yes” and “no” foods. But that is not the Mediterranean way. It’s a way of life. A mindset. Consistency over time. A focus on quality, real, whole, vibrant, plant-rich foods. And a lot of olive oil!
And above all, food is a way to connect…
Let’s connect!

I wanted to reach out and mention how much I am enjoying the Mediterranean Masterclass! This is a wealth of excellent and abundant information! I found myself in a bit of a cholesterol issue after hitting menopause. My GP doc wanted to put me on statins if my numbers did not come down. Dr. Axtell explained the Mediterranean Diet and the science and success of this way of navigating health. In four months I have put my numbers back in the normal range! I can do things to help me! I am very excited that I own this class to reference again and again. Thank you for your passion for real health and longevity!
