Celebrity Travel: Go Away With Tanya Zuckerbrot

By Jae-Ha Kim, Tribune Content Agency on

With a client list that includes supermodel Molly Sims, journalist Megyn Kelly and candy entrepreneur Dylan Lauren (Ralph's daughter), Tanya Zuckerbrot is one of the highest-paid dieticians in the country. The author of "The F-Factor Diet: Discover the Secret to Permanent Weight Loss" and "The Miracle Carb Diet: Make Calories and Fat Disappear -- with Fiber!," Zuckerbrot knows that people panic about getting fit for the summer. She says the key to staying fit is eating well, even when you're traveling.

"You don't have to give up carbs to lose weight," says Zuckerbrot, 44. "I try to impart on my clients that fresh, unprocessed food and smaller portion sizes have a huge impact on healthy weight management." A resident of Manhattan, she tweets regularly about healthy eating on Twitter.

Q. What is your favorite vacation destination?

A. Capri, Italy. We try to go every summer. It is the perfect mix of Italian culture, food, style and weather.

Q. To someone who was going there for the first time, what would you recommend that they do during their visit?

A. A trip to Capri is not complete without a day spent at the Fontelina Beach Club. Order their Peach Sangria and Pasta Vongole. You won't be disappointed!

 

Q. What untapped destination should people know about?

A. The Golden Door Spa in Escondido, California. It's a fully immersive experience designed to help people disconnect from their hectic lives, so that they can fully reconnect with themselves.

Q. What was the first trip you took as a child? And did you love it, or not so much?

A. My first big trip as a child was to visit family in Cali, Colombia. My mother's family is of Colombian descent. I felt very connected to the people, the culture and the food.
