Publisher's Synopsis
Do you sound like you're following your diet to the letter but somehow can't seem to lose weight?
The following foods are commonly used in a Mediterranean-style diet:
- Vegetables, fruits, grains and bread, potatoes, nuts, seeds and beans in abundance;
- olive oil as a main source of fat; and
- Low to moderate levels of dairy products, milk, poultry and fish.
In this diet, fish and poultry are more common than red meat. It also emphasizes plant-based ingredients that have been minimally refined. Wine is commonly served in small to moderate quantities with meals. Instead of candy, fruit is a popular dessert.
Obesity, diabetes, elevated cholesterol, and high blood pressure are all risk factors for heart disease and stroke, and this way of eating will help reduce them. According to some studies, a Mediterranean diet high in virgin olive oil will aid the body in removing extra cholesterol from the arteries and maintaining healthy blood vessels.
