I folded in much of the 1911 Britannica article. It is the Britannica, apparently, that both gives his dates as 1457-1566 and states that he died at 98; the simplest way out for now was to question his birthdate.
The link previously found here was not to anything much about Cornaro, much less to the text of his writings; but to a commentary on his ideas on a commercial site: since it doesn't add much for anyone reading this article for information about Cornaro, it seemed best to remove it.

Sounds good to me and thank you for helping me on this one. Should the fact that medical/diet health sites are touting Cornaro's works to sell their own products be mentioned in this article? --

Sounds fine to me; in the lingo of literature and the arts, that's known as "reception", after all.... A favourable spin might even be put on such an addition: Cornaro may be viewed as the ancestor of these modern movements, etc. (At which point that link might come creeping back legitimately! as an illustration of that.)
