Professor De Angelis is an expert in nutrition and physiology. His approach consists of a series of easy-to-follow rules and concepts that revolve around a fundamental principle: for millions of years, food has been a form of communication between the environment and man, according to which the organism has self-regulated, modifying its body composition, its metabolism, the amount of accumulated fat.
By relying on the De Angelis method, we will finally be able to eat well, that is, to nourish ourselves by following the simple but effective rules dictated by human physiology, which concern the composition of meals, their quantity and, above all, their daily rhythm.
