The Mediterranean diet is one that is inspired by the more traditional eating habits of Italy, Spain, and Greece from the 1940s and the 1950s. This particular diet is rich in olive oil, vegetables, unrefined cereals, fruits, and legumes. There is also a moderately high consumption of fish, dairy products such as cheese and yogurt, a moderate consumption of wine, and low eating of any meat that is non fish. The diet is very similar to a pescatarian styled diet.
It’s currently being reported by Medical News Today that studies are showing how this diet may actually extend a person’s lifespan, reduce the risk of Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease, as well as lower risks of various other health concerns such as coronary heart disease and stroke.
