The Mediterranean Diet

Evidence shows that people adopt the whole diet like the Mediterranean Diet have a lower chance of heart attacks and cardiovasular issues. Researchers studied information from 1957 to 2014 to study the relationship between food and heart disease. The study showed higher intake of saturated fats increased heart disease. They also found that a low fat diet lowered cholesterol, but the whole diet approach like the Mediterranean one had a greater reduction of heart disease.

What really is the Mediterranean Diet?

It mainly focuses on increasing intake of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fresh pasta, fish and less meats. It also encourages intake of good fats like avocados and nuts.

Despite all these scientific test basically we all need to eat whole food and each food in moderation
