Mediterranean diet

The Mediterranean Diet is a special kind of food plan that emphasizes eating lots of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, and nuts. It also includes eating fish and seafood several times a week and enjoying small amounts of dairy products and poultry. Olive oil is the main source of fat instead of butter or margarine, and herbs and spices are used instead of salt for seasoning. Eating sweets and red meat is only occasional. This diet has been linked to a healthier lifestyle and can help you stay fit and healthy.
