Mediterranean diets are fresh-n-fantastic for the heart. They're derived from the rich palettes of 16 different countries bordering the Mediterranean sea.



Special to these diets are:

- High consumption of fruits, vegetables, bread and other cereals, potatoes, beans, nuts and seeds

- Olive oil is an important fat source (good for the heart)

- Dairy products, fish and poultry are consumed in low to moderate amounts

- Eggs are consumed 0-4 times a week

- Wine is consumed in low to moderate amounts

Cookeryclub have a spanish and Greek section - i often typre tapas in to the search engine to get some idea.
I don't believe for a moment that the Mediterranean diet includes little meat or cheese (that is a gross misconception) and that it is more healthy due to this.



It's more healthy because it doesn't contain a lot of processed food and along with plenty of meat it includes plenty of fruit and vegetables and legumes. It is not industrialised and it is more balanced and that's the essence of it.
