Why The Mediterranean Diet Is So Successful

Why The Mediterranean Diet Is So Successful

A few days ago, I share a post about the Mediterranean Diet.  Here is more evidence about its benefits:

  • A number of studies have confirmed the health benefits of a Mediterranean-style diet — most of which are likely due to it being low in sugars, moderate in protein and high in fresh fruits and vegetables, along with healthy fats
  • Eating a Mediterranean-style diet has been linked to a number of health benefits, including prevention and reversal of metabolic syndrome, improved cardiovascular health and reduced risk for stroke
  • Other benefits include reduced risk of adult acne, rheumatoid arthritis, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's disease and cancer, and improved overall health and longevity
