Summary
The Mediterranean diet is nothing new. It’s been praised for years as a heart-healthy way to eat, but with new research, and continued support of the Blue Zones way of life, the Mediterranean diet is getting a second turn. Full of whole grains, fruits, vegetables, beans, seeds, nuts, olive oil and fish, this diet is perfectly compared with a Blue Zones lifestyle.
The Mediterranean is instead a general pattern of eating, not just a diet but a way of life which can be narrowed down to two words - whole and simple - because the centerpiece of most dishes are whole, plant-based foods prepared in simple ways.
It has been brought to notice for decades that the Mediterranean Diet offers one of the healthiest eating patterns on earth due to it Olive oil, the abundance of leafy green and the lack of 24-ounce steaks.
The Mediterranean diet (or Med Diet or MD as it’s often called) is more than a diet; it’s a lifestyle approach to healthy eating. It specifies fruits, vegetables, fish, beans, nuts, and whole grains, as well as other ingredients promoting good health, such as olive oil and wine.
