The Heart Of The

Mediterranean Diet

The Mediterranean diet is not only delicious but also widely recognized as one of the healthiest ways to eat. Rooted in the traditional eating habits of countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea, such as Greece, Italy, and Spain, this diet emphasizes fresh, wholesome foods that nourish the body and delight the palate.
Seafood, particularly fatty fish like salmon, sardines, and mackerel, provides essential omega-3 fatty acids that benefit heart health and cognitive function. Unlike many Western diets, the Mediterranean diet limits red meat and processed foods, reducing the intake of saturated fats, added sugars, and sodium— all of which are linked to health issues such as obesity, high blood pressure, and type 2 diabetes.
At the heart of the Mediterranean diet are plant-based foods— fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. These ingredients

are naturally rich in vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants, which support heart health, reduce inflammation, and help prevent chronic diseases. Olive oil, a staple of the diet, is a source of healthy mono-unsaturated fat that can help lower bad cholesterol levels and support brain function.
