Sirt Food Diet consisting of wine, chocolate and coffee sounds like a dream

A NEW year has dawned and the annual onslaught of diet advice has begun. Which diet will grab our attention this year? Will it be paleo, vegan or pegan? Aidan Goggins and Glen Matten, authors of The Sirt Food Diet, think they have the answer.
