If you are looking to lose fat and NOT feel like you are living on prisoner rations and treadmills...you have come to the right place!
I’m here to tell you about – what I consider to be – a realistic way for you to “have your cake and eat it too”.
Now that’s kind of an ironic cliché to describe a “diet book”, so I better explain…
I may be a Certified Nutritionist and in fact, I’ve been a Certified Strength Coach for 30 years, but I’m still 54 years old and still fight the same battle everyone else does when it comes to losing fat or simply maintaining a healthy body weight.
And just as importantly, I want to have a life and enjoy the company of friends and family along the way.
I love wine. I love sharing a bottle with friends. I enjoy the taste. The warm, relaxing feeling it gives me after a long day battling at work…red wine especially. So many varieties…
As I have aged, I have definitely migrated towards the wine mindset and away from the beer drinking pattern of my younger years. It’s not that I don’t enjoy a cold beer on a hot summer day, but…
Over time I have realized the choice of red wine has distinct advantages.
But, just like you, I’ve got to watch my waistline, too. And as an expert on nutrition and exercise, I understand the need to balance guilty pleasures with a healthy lifestyle.
But is red wine REALLY a guilty pleasure? More on that in a minute…
Let's state right up front what this book will do for you.
In "The Red Wine Diet" you will discover:
How to CRUSH the obstacles holding you back...The SECRET behind a winning mindset...The REAL scoop of the health benefits of wine...A list of ADDICTIVE FOODS YOU MUST AVOID...A list of ACCELERATORS to speed up your results...The 9 science-based rules for a LONGER LIFE...

I'M NOT INTERESTED IN LIVING A SPARTAN EXISTENCE, JUST SO I CAN DROP A FEW POUNDS.
It took my own near drowning a couple of years ago to wake me up to a couple of things:
I’m not invincible any more. Over the years, the abilities and metabolism I took for granted in younger days have drifted away. Without some decisive action on my part, I could lose my quality of life. My experience almost cost me my life! I was no longer an All-American athlete. I had to deal with the same challenges everyone else faces. I have the knowledge to help you lose body fat, but not feel like you are in a constant state of deprivation. As a fitness professional, I believe it’s my obligation to get this information out there. Over the years, I’ve helped hundreds of people lose literally thousands of pounds. You don’t do that without making a few valuable observations. Eating well and enjoying life does not automatically equal weight gain! Your health is not a quick fix, but a series of very specific small decisions I will detail for you. A LOT OF WHAT YOU BELIEVE ABOUT HEALTHY FOOD IS A COMPLETE LIE!!!
Listen, like a lot of you, I’m not looking to get 'ripped'…
…I don’t have illusions of being a fitness model…
…I'm not training for a bodybuilding competition…
But I VERY MUCH want to keep off the body fat and feel better every day.
That may sound weird coming from a fitness business owner and lifelong athlete, but the reality is – it is simply NOT my mission in life to see how shredded I can get my abs.
We have all seen the pictures of those men and women over age 40, 50 or even into their 60’s and 70’s with incredible physiques and rock-hard abs and ZERO BODY FAT. I congratulate them! They have done an incredible amount of work, and strive each and every day to look like that. But…
The truth is - the vast majority of us are not going to put the effort and time into working out.
My goals are very straightforward.
I simply want to
…feel better…
…move better…
…have plenty of energy throughout the day…
…maintain a clear mind…
…keep my stress levels in check…
…enjoy life with my family and friends…
…and yes, hopefully look okay while I’m doing it.
I suspect most of you would agree, these are not outrageous goals.
If you are anything like me, your metabolism is slowing while the pace of your life seems to be speeding up! Sometimes it seems like your time belongs to everyone but you. As this happens, it becomes very easy to let your own health get pushed to the back burner.
Did you know...even a moderate weight loss of 8-10 pounds (or about 5% of your body-weight) can help you fight off "Metabolic Syndrome"? Keeping away symptoms like high blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol.
With all of this in mind, I recently sat down, pulled my notes together and wrote what I consider to be a simple and livable set of guidelines for anyone looking to lose body fat but still have a life.
The Result? “The Red Wine Diet”.
First things first – Let’s address the elephant in the room!
Yes, you can drink wine and lose weight!
Now, I differ from a most of the fitness industry when I say that, but I know it’s true. I PROVE IT with clients, day in and day out. I invite you to read on and find out exactly how it’s done...
I’ve "poured" everything I know into a successful and fun approach to weight loss called “The Red Wine Diet”. My approach does not involve hours at the gym and certainly does not involve stripping out every shred of enjoyment from your day.
FACT: I can tell you right now, when I recently decided to lose 10 pounds, I did not give up a single glass of wine.
I HAVE BEEN HEARING THE SAME STORY FOR YEARS AND IT’S TIME TO GET IT ALL DOWN ON PAPER AND OUT THE OPEN.
The best way I can explain The Red Wine Diet is to take a couple of minutes to introduce you to two clients of mine. I really want to tell you their story.
If you are anything like this couple, you’re looking lose weight without jumping through hoops - literally - or leaving behind a lifestyle you have come to enjoy. You know you have to make some changes, but are not exactly sure where to start or what to do.
One the reasons being a fitness expert is so challenging is that you will be hard-pressed to find a topic more confusing than nutrition.
Any trainer will tell you this…
Sadly, there are so many myths and lies it can be paralyzing for anyone not employed the fitness industry.
I’d like you to meet Jim and Diane. They are both successful and over 40. Jim and Diane are just my most recent as examples, but I have literally heard similar stories from clients aged anywhere from 30 to 70 years old.
The ages may change, but the problems are timeless!
Despite being a little older, they consider themselves several years younger when it comes to their outlook on life.
They do their very best to stay active.
They enjoy a lot of friends and have a really active social life but…
Like a lot of people they are stressed and overburdened with responsibilities.
Whether it be financial or personal…they just have a lot going on.
I call them “health neglected, but health aware.”
They know they must act now so the next 30 years or more of their lives will have the same quality of life they experience now.
Somehow, though, they get the alarming sense they are falling behind…
They have a couple of health issues going on in their life; nothing major but they know these kind of things can certainly get worse with time.
Like most of the population, they go back and forth with gym memberships, but they don’t seem to have the time to really stick with it.
The gym alone is definitely not the answer! And the numbers prove it! This coming from a guy who OWNED several gyms throughout a long career…
Jim and Diane have also noticed small steady subtle changes have begun impact their lifestyle. Little things like:
Slow, but steady weight gain around the mid-sectionThe same slow but noticeable drop in energy levelsA seemingly endless list of demands on their time; leaving them stressed and over-scheduled
Did you know: It is possible to actually REVERSE type 2 diabetes (and get off related medications) through proper diet and just a little weight loss!
SO WHAT IS THIS HAVE TO DO WITH YOU?
Well, as I said, I have been a strength and conditioning specialist for roughly 30 years and am also certified nutritionist. Over time, I’ve helped people lose over 5000 pounds of fat at my various facilities.
I now spend most of my time speaking and writing, and I spread the word to people over 40 and 50 and beyond, about how to take better care of themselves, and live a longer life.
Jim and Diane were familiar with my articles and strong position on health and fitness for people over age 40. They realized I wasn’t afraid to call out the lies and state the flat-out truth - no matter how unpopular that might be.
After all, my clients range from youngsters (age 11 or 12) all the way through to professional athletes.
Along the way I’ve just about seen it all!
I have always believed in being “hands on” when it came to helping my clients. If I could not PROVE something worked, I was not interested. If a diet, workout or supplement did not have proof and solid science to back it, it was likely bogus and I discarded it. I tested everything myself before allowing my clients to use it.
I was proud to be considered the “go to resource” for my clients as well as for those who followed my work.
I had known Jim and Diane in the past but this conversation was a little different... They wanted a “sit-down” meeting.
They had a real look of concern in their eyes. I could tell that they recently had their own heart-to-heart discussion and came to the realization it was time to do something before it was too late.
Jim and Diane admitted to themselves that the life they were now living was NOT the life they planned. They could see their quality of life changing...and not for the better. They dreaded the thought of actually lowering their expectations for an active retirement for no real reason…other than aging and some weight gain.
To their credit, they decided to confront – rather than ignore – these changes before they led them into a downward spiral.
Diane looked me right in the eye and asked the $64,000 question. “Can we win the weight loss battle?”
Jim added, “Art, we consider you ‘one of us’ in this battle because we know you’re over 50. You are fighting the same issues we are. What can we do today turn things around?”
I knew I could help but first I had to clarify some things. Some of them would not be easy for them to hear...
I asked them both to have a seat and said, “I am going to tell you the real reasons why you find yourselves in the position you do today.”
It was time for me to be the source of some harsh reality…
HERE’S WHAT I HAD TO TELL THEM:
“Frankly,” I said “a lot of what’s happening to you isn’t really your fault.” Now I’m the first one to tell all my clients that their health is their own responsibility but there’s a twist here. I was definitely NOT giving them an easy out…
“Most people of our generation have been told the same lies for decade after decade. So much so that it has become part of our culture in America to think a certain way about our nutrition. Unfortunately, most of ‘rules’ we been taught are flat-out lies.
Remember the old Food Pyramid? YIKES! This was basically a prescription for getting fat!
I’m not saying this so you can use it as a crutch and NOT take action! That somehow you can blame “the system” for the state of your health. But when you hear how widespread the lies are, you can’t help but feel some outrage.”
They both looked a little confused. And said “What are you talking about?”
I said, “For the past several decades the food companies, the government and even the medical community have been promoting a widely accepted but completely false set of ideas.
This sounds like it borders on conspiracy. I get it. Give me the chance to explain…
Even though I run a gym I can tell you flat out that the workouts that you’re doing are only part of the solution.
In fact even the best workout routines are only about 25 to 30% of the answer. We know from science that weight loss is approximately 70% nutrition. The problem is if 70% of the solution is in our food and we can’t trust the people who make our food...well...how are we supposed to win?
I could see by the faces I was making them more distressed instead of calming them down, so it was time to explain exactly what I meant!
I said, “Let me give you some examples. Have you been told since you were little that FAT is bad for you?
“Of course.” they said.
“Wrong!”
“It’s a lie. We need fats for good health. We were told to exclude all fats from our diet back in the 70’s. When we pulled out all the fat, we removed the good fats as well as the bad, and replaced those calories with sugar and other processed carbohydrates. This is widely considered to be the start of the obesity epidemic in this country.
You have to remember the expression:
‘Fat does not make you fat; carbs make you fat.’
Lie #2: You NEED to eat whole grains in order to be healthy.
We’ve been told that eating whole grains is a healthy thing to do, but that’s simply not the case if you’re trying to lose body fat!
The first thing my colleagues and I do when anyone asks for our help with weight loss is to tell them to STOP EATING GRAINS. (We also recommend client minimize dairy products as well. But more on that later…)
“But you won’t hear the food companies telling you that, because there is very little money to be made for these companies a country eating good healthy protein and vegetables. Wheat-based products are simply too profitable!
The short version is: "We simply do not need to eat grains in order to be healthy.”
“The low-fat approach from the 70s and 80s was touted by the medical community and the government as one of the safest ways to eat. Unfortunately it was actually one of the biggest frauds ever perpetrated on the American people. As a result of this terrible advice our country got fat; really fat. To the point where we became a joke of the tourist industry and became known around the world as the ‘Fat Americans’.”
Our diet, as it stands right now – known as the "Western Diet" – IS A DISEASE PRODUCING MACHINE!
It promotes diabetes, heart disease, hypertension and of course obesity as direct results.
All of this falls into the category of an old saying from World War II Germany.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."
You may have heard that expression before. Let’s just can’t say it came from one of the bad guys...
Such is the case with our food. People don’t really eat food anymore. We have forgotten how to eat food for foods sake. Instead we ingest a bunch of processed “nutrients and additives” as a food company calls them, and wonder why our body reacts poorly to them. We have forgotten how to savor the selection and preparation of food as much as the eating of it.
By not sticking with “real” food, we have given the food companies a green light to tell us just about anything they want; and to convince us that almost anything they produce is healthy.
"Special interests have essentially purchased the ability to call nutritionally questionable stuff ‘good food’…all with the approval of the US government.”
That’s why I say that many of our friends, family and coworkers never stood a chance. We ate exactly what the experts all told was the right thing to eat. Unfortunately, this simply made poor quality food a part of everyday culture in this country and somehow obesity became okay.”
Obesity is higher among middle age adults, 40-59 years old (about 40%!) than among younger adults, age 20-39 (about 30%).
“Wow”, said Jim. “That’s a lot to take in. But it’s sort of hard to argue with that when we see it every day all around us.”
Diane looked a little disgusted and added, “I’m starting to get it. Even though a healthy diet is possible, it’s simply not probable…at least not without some kind of map to navigate all these traps!”
“I know it’s crazy, isn’t it?” I added. “But there is a way through the mess. Let me get to that in a minute.”
“When it comes to losing fat there is another lie we have to deal with.
Lie #3: In order to lose weight we have to give up almost everything the tastes good; including alcohol. Then we have to spend hours at the gym running on a treadmill like a crazy person. Life has to become an endless series of abstaining and depriving.”
I continued, “Here is one of the few points where I disagree with the vast majority of my colleagues”.
“Virtually every personal trainer out there will tell you that you need to give up alcohol in order to lose weight. I can tell you flat out that is not the case.”
“You can still have your red wine and lose weight. It’s just that simple. Many people I have worked with continue to enjoy red wine regularly, stay fit and manage their weight while dropping body fat.”
“Something else to keep in mind: traditional weight loss programs are not a lot of fun. They are stressful, demanding and involve lots of crazy restrictions. This is NOT how proper weight loss is done!”
In fact, this sort of stressful approach actually works against you!
“There are plenty of people out there who are ‘having it all’. They’re the ones who’ve learned to make smart choices and follow a simple plan. They have lost tons of weight – literally – all while learning the skills to enjoy life, live longer and even develop better mental clarity. EXCESS STRESS CAUSES WEIGHT GAIN! PERIOD."
After my little rant, Jim and Diane said, “Tell us more of this. It sounds way too easy. Why haven’t we heard about this before?”
I went on. “Listen, The United States is a great country with tremendous natural resources and endless ingenuity. We have become very good at producing vast quantities of very inexpensive food. Unfortunately the quality of this food is highly suspect.”
“Here is where things get a bit dicey.
All the methods used to process our food today are designed for the convenience of the food manufacturers, not for our health.
Don’t believe for a moment that all the food you see on the shelves at the store in bags and boxes was created to help you live a longer life!”
Finally I said, “Here’s something to think about. If the food companies understand the food they’re producing is bad for us with all the sugar, high fructose corn syrup and chemicals, then why do they continue to produce it in such a way? Because – and I hate to say this – these manufacturers literally don’t care if we
…develop diseases…
…become obese…
…suffer strokes…
…have heart attacks…
…or even die!
Why? Because there will always be more humans to come along! These companies will always have customers. Profits above all else.”
“All right Art.” Diane said. “You convinced us. So what we do? It seems like the odds are stacked against us. We want to lose weight, but we also have a life and don’t want to eat carrot sticks and lettuce for every meal.”
“We trust you Art. I’ve seen the things you’ve done for so many folks around this area. You are pretty much known as the ‘weight loss guy’ around here. We need something simple. Our lives are crazy enough as it is. We can’t spend hours at the gym or ordering all kinds a special food etc. There’s just no way all that can fit into our schedule. Something tells me all of this is leading somewhere.”
“You’re right. I have done something about it.” I said.
“I’VE DEVELOPED AN APPROACH I CALL
'THE RED WINE DIET'.”

I had no more than spoken the words in their eyes lit up.
Jim said, “I like it already! Where do I sign up!”
"Slow down Jim, hold on a second. I understand the name makes it sound too good to be true, but there is a lot more going on here than meets the eye.
Also, I realize the title sounds like a contradiction but it’s really not. In fact I hesitate to use the word “diet” at all. Diets don’t work. “
“The word diet implies a quick fix and quick fixes NEVER work! I know that from personal experience with hundreds and hundreds of clients.”
“This is not to say that you can see some very quick results with this approach. But I’m just saying it’s something that works for the long haul. Also, a diet implies that it’s something you do for a short while before you return to some other pattern… most likely the pattern that created the problem in the first place.
Not so here.
“The Red Wine Diet” is really an approach with some simple ideas put into action...
Here are SOME KEY CONCEPTS of "The Red Wine Diet":
Having an “addictive foods” list. Yes – much of the food in our day-to-day meals have addictive qualities that keep up coming back for more! Just don’t eat them…they are addictive for all the WRONG reasons.Creating a list of ‘go to’ actions which can put your results on the fast track. These “Accelerators” help you achieve your results quicker – if you want to push things along.Following exact meal plans and even having the right grocery lists and ‘done-for-you’ recipes.Showing you how pairing the RIGHT wines can enhance everyday meals.
It couldn’t be any easier. No more guessing about what to eat week in and week out.”
“I’ll tell you what “The Red Wine Diet” is not...
It is not physically demanding, complicated, or expensive”.
And even though I am a trainer and have worked out pretty much my entire life, I wanted to create something for all of us, and which did not even require a gym membership.
As we age, we slowly begin to gain weight WITHOUT any change in the diet because of a decrease in our resting metabolic rate, muscle mass and overall activity levels.
I call this the "FAT GAP"!
“The best part is the entire process is actually fun!
Let’s face it. If I couldn’t provide a solution that was enjoyable, this approach would be largely ignored by the world and “The Red Wine Diet” would become just another diet book, but…
With just the information in this book you can lose body fat, expand your social circles in all the right ways, and live a longer, more fulfilling life.
This is how eating should be!
I’m not sure why, but as a society we have tried to make eating as confusing and difficult as possible. I never understood this… But I think I’ve come up with a solution to clarify that. Would you like me to explain how?”
While Jim and Diane were very eager to get going, Jim had a definite look in his eye.
He said, “I get what you’re saying Art but… I still have to get my head round one thing...Can we really drink wine and lose weight?
“Absolutely!” I repeated. “I can say this with 100% conviction and I have science to back me up.”
“I’m excited Art. Let’s get started…”

I appreciate your taking the time to read my story and check out “The Red Wine Diet”. I also have to believe you are facing some of the same problems Jim and Diane were. I hope you’ll join them!
You won’t regret it.
Let me provide a few more details about the book:
IN “THE RED WINE DIET” YOU WILL FIND SIMPLE AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND EXPLANATIONS OF:
The REAL health benefits of wine.
From the chemicals it contains to the lower-stress lifestyle that goes with it…
How a chemical you may have heard of called 'resveratrol' serves as a powerful anti-oxidant and can even help you live a longer life…
Myself and my ‘wine expert’ Jeff Slavin detail all of this for you.
Jeff is an expert with over 20 years in the industry. I went to high school with Jeff and trust him completely. When I started this project, I knew just who to call!
Short answer? No, red wine is NOT a guilty pleasure…you don’t need to feel guilty about drinking red wine.
Exact meal plans based upon REAL food.
How higher protein intake can turn on your body’s own ability to burn fat…
How removing most grains (and definitely all the processed grains) can keep your insulin levels in check, and turn off the 'fat storing mechanisms' we all have…
How even something we view as “healthy” like dairy products can slow progress to a crawl…
The Basics of Red and White wines.
Without turning the book into a university class on the study of wine, Jeff takes the topic of wine – something which can quickly get out of control with the endless variety available – and breaks it down into something we can all appreciate.
Jeff explains the specifics of wine, far better than I can. He gets into how wine makes food taste so much better. It’s like…adding just the correct spice to food to enhance flavor.
This gives you a sort of a ‘primer’ on the world of wine using our language, not some snooty approach. He easily cuts through the lingo and created a handy guide for all of us.
EXACTLY what food pairings go best with what wine.
In sticking with our need for simplicity, we spell out some easy to use food and wine pairings. Using Jeff’s “wine primer” as a guide, you can start to broaden your wine knowledge and put that to use with your own experimental food and wine combinations…after all…only YOU can determine what you really like!
Probably Most Importantly – Details on the RIGHT WAY to approach making changes to habits you may have had your entire life!
We describe the best way to make changes last for the long haul. After all, this is one of the primary themes of “The Red Wine Diet” – “solutions you can live with”.
'9 Rules For A Long Life'
Long term solutions that are easy to stick with must provide one thing. They have to show you how to live a long and healthy life. So the end of the book contains my version of some “rules to live longer by”.
I’ve put all my years of research and experience - and no small amount of science - into creating a list of the 9 RULES FOR A LONGER LIFE. These rules are the summary of the book. I hope you will consider them.
Just click the button below and finally cut through the lies, find a simple stress-free solution that is as fun as it is effective.
