Living Healthy on a Mediterranean Diet: Mediterranean Dieting Foods, Meals, and History

Living Healthy on a Mediterranean Diet: Mediterranean Dieting Foods, Meals, and History

Perhaps the most notable feature of the Mediterranean diet is its holistic, inclusive approach to health and well-being. While other diets are defined by what they exclude, be it carbohydrates, fat, sugar, dairy, or anything that wouldn’t be eaten by a hunter-gatherer, the Mediterranean diet centers around the abundance of a varied and vibrant diet.

The Mediterranean diet is primarily plant-based. It’s structured around the daily consumption of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats. Fish, poultry, beans, and eggs are consumed weekly, along with moderate portions of dairy. Red meat and sugar intake are limited. Aside from the abundance of plants, a hallmark of the Mediterranean diet is moderation. Rather than restricting what you eat, the Mediterranean diet suggests easily adaptable guidelines which you can adjust to suit your unique health needs.

However, the Mediterranean diet encompasses more than just what you eat. There are certain aspects of the Mediterranean lifestyle that factor into the efficacy of the diet that emerged from it. Regular physical activity is the norm. Sharing meals with friends and family is another key component. In general, the Mediterranean region is characterized by a lower stress, slower pace of life. This presents a stark contrast to much of the rest of the Western world where we find ourselves constantly on the go, over-stressed and over-stimulated.

The Mediterranean diet is much more than a meal plan - it’s a nutrition and lifestyle guide. Once adopted and sustained, the Mediterranean way of eating, and living, can bring with it numerous health benefits and improved quality of life. As its long and well-evidenced history shows, the Mediterranean diet must be doing something right.
