We met Mr. Antonio Leonardo
Montuoro who is the president
of Academy of Mediterranean
Diet in Nicotera. He told us the
story of Nicotera. It is the centre
of the Mediterranean diet. This
diet is full of fruits, vegetables
and other healthy food. The
Mediterranean diet contains
also things like pasta, bread,
potatoes and other
carbohydrates.Let’s have a look
at the Mediterranean diet.
In the Mediterranean diet we
can eat everything but in a small
quantity. It means we can eat
sweets, cakes and so on, too.
The protagonist of the
Mediterranean diet is
the extra virgin olive oil,
in fact, Italy is the
second biggest producer
in the world.
