More information on Mediterranean Diet
The Mediterranean diet has been associated with numerous health benefits, according to several scientific studies. Here are some references that support the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet:
- Research has consistently shown that the Mediterranean diet is effective in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases and overall mortality[1][3][4][5]. For example, a study of nearly 26,000 women found that those who followed this type of diet had 25% less risk of developing cardiovascular disease over the course of 12 years[1].
- The Mediterranean diet may also support healthy weight loss when used in conjunction with caloric restriction[1].
- Other benefits of the Mediterranean diet include the prevention of type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, cognitive impairment, and unipolar depression[3].
- A dietary pattern inspired by Mediterranean Diet (MD) principles is associated with numerous health benefits[2][6].
It is important to note that the benefit of the Mediterranean diet is not as strong when looking at single foods or nutrients included in the diet. Therefore, it is important to adopt the plan in its entirety[1].
