It is considered in every wellness retreat as one of the fundamental pillars which to act for the well-being of the individual on. It has always been subject of study and research, from ancient traditional medicines to more modern ones such as the precision medicine. “Let Food be your Medicine and Medicine be your Food,” Hippocrates taught us in 400 BC.
I am always fascinated when ancient concepts continue, centuries later, to hold undisputed centrality. And nutrition is undoubtedly still today one of the most important pillars in defining healthy lifestyles, prevention and health care.
On a daily basis we are offered a wide variety of nutritional approaches and diets, from functional nutrition to ketogenic, low carb or paleo diets, just to name a few highlighted by recent trends.
But how far can we extend the concept of nourishment? No longer just the selection and combination of ingredients that aim to satisfy taste and support good health. The Preidlhof Way embraces a holistic approach to wellness and is aligned with this vision in creating its healing wellness food philosophy as well.
Always seeking the balance between care and pleasure at service of personal growth and evolution, Preidlhof's culinary proposal engages all dimensions of our being.
Conceived by the Apulian Chef Angelo Didonna, with the consultancy of the internationally renowned Healing Chef Emanuele Giorgione and of the Spa Designer Patrizia Bortolin, Preidlhof's Wellness Healing Gourmet Menu offers refined and healthy gourmet creations inspired by the principles of mindful eating.
In the awareness that the choice of what we eat is key - a healthy diet that respects seasons, selects quality and values the combination of ingredients to create recipes that are plant-based, whole grain, lactose-free, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free - the horizon broadens from “what” we eat to “why,” “where,” and “how” we eat it.
The creation and preparation of a dish thus contemplates not only the body, but also our finer dimensions, which are also stimulated and nourished in our culinary experience.
