Mediterranean Diet Pyramid
Variations of The Mediterranean Diet
have traditionally existed in other parts of Italy, parts of
Spain and Portugal, southern France, parts of North Africa
(especially Morocco and Tunisia), parts of Turkey, other
parts of the Balkan region, as well as parts of the Middle
East (especially Lebanon and Syria). The diet is closely
tied traditionally to areas of olive oil cultivation in the
Mediterranean region.
Eat lots of fresh fruit and vegetables
Increase intake of essential fatty acids with plenty of fish
and healthy fats
Lower your intake of red meat and processed foods
Improve cholesterol levels and lower risk of heart diseases.
The Mediterranean Diet guidelines plan will help you
follow a diet similar to that traditionally found in the
countries around the Mediterranean. This plan is rich in
healthy fats from fish, olive oil, nuts and seeds, and
you'll find plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables here, too.
This diet is a rich source of essential fatty acids and
antioxidants, a combination which can help improve
cholesterol levels and protect heart health. In the spirit
of a Mediterranean Diet, this meal plan is recipe based.

quot;People who follow the average Mediterranean diet eat less
saturated fat than those who eat the average American diet.
In fact, saturated fat consumption is well within the
dietary guidelines. The incidence of heart
disease in Mediterranean countries is lower than in the
United States. Death rates are lower, too. But this may not
be entirely due to the diet." -info
