Additionally, nutritionist Stylianos Carlos curated comprehensive nutritional tables for each recipe, making it a practical daily tool.

This edition is organised into four key sections:

He describes the food combinations tailored to each seasonal fast as both unique and nutritionally safe, further enriching the book’s value.
