There are many diets out there for people to choose from, and it can be overwhelming in which one to choose. One diet that is seemingly more popular than others is the Mediterranean diet because it is one of the more effective diets in promoting health and preventing disease. This diet is based on the traditional cooking from the countries near the Mediterranean Sea, and it is very similar to other diets because it has the basic structure of being high in fruits and vegetables and whole grains with limitation on unhealthy fats.
The differentiation with the Mediterranean diet is the emphasis on healthy fats. Whereas we put put butter on our bread, bread is either consumed plain or dipped in olive oil in the Mediterranean diet. Furthermore, nuts are also an important part of this diet and nuts also contain a high amount of healthy fat.
A diet high in healthy fats from olive oil and nuts and low in unhealthy fats from butter or margarine over means a much more heart healthy diet and it has shown sign to reduce cases of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases. May is National Mediterranean Diet Month, and we encourage everyone to take a look at this wonderful diet and raise awareness of its benefits because reducing the number of heart diseases should be a top priority in this country.
