The Mediterranean Diet Comes Top Of The Class
On the other hand, trans-fatty acids and foods with a high glycemic index (GI) were associated with serious bad effects on heart health.
The latest review supports the Mediterranean diet pattern, rich in cereals, wine, fruits, nuts, legumes and whole grains, fish and olive oil, and low in dairy, meat, junk food and fat. The dietary pattern has been linked to longer life, less heart disease, and protection against some cancers. The diet's main nutritional components include beta-carotene, vitamin C, tocopherols, polyphenols, and essential minerals.
This new finding comes from a systematic review of 146 studies and 43 randomised trials between 1950 and 2007. Overall, it is clear that the total pattern of following the Mediterranean Diet is the one sure thing that helps us live longer, healthier and heart disease free lives.
