Do you love eating Mediterranean food? You'll love the Mediterranean diet. Here's what the Mediterranean diet is all about:
The Mediterranean diet is a way of eating that has been shown in studies to have many benefits for health and longevity. The focus is on vegetables, fruits, nuts, beans, legumes, cheese and yogurt from cow milk or sheep milk (feta), poultry and fish. Olive oil is the main fat used in dishes. Wine and spirits, are limited. The diet is rich in plant foods, especially fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans and legumes. In fact it is so rich in these nutrients that the amount of calories needed each day to sustain this healthful diet is only about 1/3 of what a person would need on a typical American diet.
The Mediterranean lifestyle means enjoying meals with friends and family at home; socializing over meals; having time to relax while eating and enjoying outdoor activities like walking or gardening. There is no such thing as "one size fits all" eating for all people or all times. Another striking difference is that portion sizes are smaller than in the United States.
This book covers:
- The History Behind the Mediterranean diet
- Top Tips
- Breakfast Recipes
- Lunch Recipes
- Snack Recipes
- Dinner Recipes
- Side Dish Recipes
- Dessert Recipes
And much more!
In the 1960's Ancel Keys and other researchers found that people living in the Mediterranean area (primarily Spain, Italy, and Greece) had low rates of heart disease and cancer compared with Americans. They called this diet the "Mediterranean Diet" because most of the foods came from mid-latitude regions between the Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn (the Mediterranean Sea).
