Based on health and wellness coaching techniques, this book equips the readers with new tools to start a new journey towards behavioural change, when they cannot seem to achieve their desired goals by themselves.
What is to be expected from a finance executive who left his promising career to pursue his dream in functional health gastronomy?
Using informal, carefree, and humorous language, this book deciphers lessons contained in lengthy academic treatises for non-professionals, helping readers to transform their eating habits effectively and safely and, more appealingly, without need to resort to several types of specialists. The author helps readers to understand key concepts of health and wellness with commonplace metaphors like chaotic traffic, comparisons to the human body, or a company going bankrupt, using vocabulary of the finance and corporate world.
Thus readers end up running their own diagnostic, naturally arriving at reasonable conclusions about their life phase and which steps to take in order to achieve wellness.
Let us toast to health. But no gluten and no lactose. Please!
लेखक के बारे में
Marcelo Facini is a gastronomy enthusiast who left his successful career in finance to devote full attention to his greatest passion: health food. He continuously researched diverse and heterodox areas, travelling around the world and conducting deep studies, with support from prominent sources, such as biochemical engineers, functional nutritionists, and professionals in medicine and gastronomy.
Before he could take such a radical turn, the author took courses on vegetarian gastronomy at the acclaimed Cordon Vert in the United Kingdom, the oldest Vegetarian Society in the world. He continued his world journey through many gastronomic schools, taking courses at Le Cordon Bleu (United States) and at Ecole Ritz Escoffier (France). He also took cooking classes on Indian cuisine in the USA, and Thai cuisine in Brazil.
In addition to these studies, he is also certified as a Personal and Professional Coach at the Brazilian Coaching Society, and he completed a Health and Wellness Coach Certification, powered by Real Balance Global Wellness Services, at Rice University, Texas, USA.
Aside from his acquired expertise and contacts with chefs and friends from several cultures, what encourages him the most is to share all that knowledge with those uninitiated in this complex universe. How? Through a simple, fun, and educational language that promotes easy access to good health and life quality via functional gastronomy.
