Publisher's Synopsis
What Is the Mediterranean Diet?
The good news, you do not have to say goodbye to bread, either. White bread, unfortunately, has to go. Most modern diets will target the bread and carbs first as items destined for the chop. But whole-grain slices of bread are there to enjoy-in moderation, yes, but around enough in the diet to not want, nor need, nor miss it.
The Mediterranean Diet refers to the traditional eating habits and lifestyles of people living around the Mediterranean Sea - Italy, Spain, France, Greece, and some North African countries. The Mediterranean Diet has become very popular in recent times, as people from these regions have better health and suffer from fewer ailments, such as cancer and cardiovascular issues. Food plays a key role in this.
This book was not intended to be the be-all end-all publication on Mediterranean food, but it was structured to serve as a knowledge basis - to give you a complete idea of the most basics of where to look when it came to making choices for yourself. Just the essentials and then enough to get you started, with enough to carry you in confidence. Hopefully, that happened, I had a drachma for every time I wrote: "olive oil, wine, bread, fish, I'd be hegemon by now". We also tried to give you a solid, calorie-precise guide to what you'll be eating, not so you can obsessively track every calorie, but so you can start thinking about the food choices you make every day in hopes that it will encourage you to find your way to a healthy lifestyle.
At the heart of any successful diet are the foods that you will enjoy. Regardless of the rules of origin of a diet, it's important to know what you'll be eating and how best to prepare and enjoy your meals.
