It sounds a lot like what I tell my patient everyday. I talk a lot about the Mediterranean Style diet. 

Here's what to eat:

- minimal lean red meat

- white meat and fish 

- olive oil, no butter or margarine

- lots of fruits and veggies

- legumes and nuts

- 1-2 glasses of red wine

- whole grains, no white starches
