      Introduction

      Mediterranean Diet

      The Mediterranean Diet is a customary diet in Mediterranean countries, characterized especially by a high consumption of vegetables and olive oil and reasonable consumption of protein, and thought to bestow health benefits.

      A true Mediterranean diet consists mainly of seafood, fruits and vegetables, olive oil, hearty grains, and other foods that help individual fight counter heart disease, diabetes, certain cancers, and cognitive decline. It’s a diet worth chasing without hassle and could soon be on a pathway to a longer and healthier life.

      A true Mediterranean Diet is based on the territory’s traditional fruits, olive oil, vegetables, nuts, beans, seafood, and dairy—with perhaps a glass or two of red wine. That’s how the inhabitants of Greece, southern Italy and Crete ate circa in the 1960, and that made their rates of inveterate disease were among the lowest in the world and their life expectancy among the highest, despite having limited medical services. And the genuine Mediterranean diet is about more than just eating fresh, nutritious food. Sharing of meals and everyday physical activity with others are imperative elements of the Mediterranean Diet Pyramid. Together, they can have a profound effect on your disposition and mental health and help you promote a deep appreciation for the gratifications of eating delicious and healthy foods.

      Mediterranean Diet Pyramid

      How to make the switch to Mediterranean Diet

      If you’re feeling frightened by the thought of changing your habits of eating to a Mediterranean diet, below are some suggestions to get you started with ease:

      Seafood should be consumed twice a week. Fish such as salmon, tuna, herring, sardines and sablefish (black cod) are loaded in Omega-3 fatty acids; Shellfish such as oysters, clams and mussels have similar benefits for heart and brain health.

      Eat lots of vegetables. Take a crack at a trouble-free plate of sliced tomatoes sprinkled with crumbled feta cheese and olive oil, or load your crust pizza with mushrooms and peppers instead of pepperoni and sausage. Soups, salads, and crudités platters are also awesome ways to load up on vegetables.

      Eat breakfast always. Whole grains, fruit, and other fiber-rich foods are a vast way to begin your day; this will keep you pleasantly full for hours.

      Eat fresh fruits for dessert. Instead of cake, other baked goods or ice cream, opt for fresh figs, strawberries, apples or grapes.

      Always consume vegetarian meal one night per week. Once you found this helpful and you get the hang of it, try may begin to try two nights a week. I recommend VEGETARIAN KETOGENIC DIET BY LOIS J. DOWNEY. The book is going to help you a lot.

      Enjoy dairy products in moderation.  USDA recommends that you limit saturated fat to no more than ten percent of your everyday calories which is generally 200 calories for nearly everyone. That still enables you to enjoy dairy products such as natural Greek, plain yogurt or cheese.

      Make use good fats. Nuts, extra-virgin olive oil, olives, sunflower seeds, and avocados are huge basis of healthy fats for your everyday meals.

      Rapid start to a Mediterranean diet

      The effortless way to make the modification to a Mediterranean diet is to start with little steps. This can be done by:

      Choosing whole grains instead of refined breads, rice, and pasta.

      Sautéing food in olive oil instead of butter.

      Limit high-fat dairy by switching to skim or 1% milk from 2% or whole milk

      Eating more fruits and vegetables by enjoying salad as a starter or side dish, snacking on fruit, and adding veggies to other dishes.

      Substituting fish for red meat at least twice per week.

      Mediterranean Diet Shopping List
