In my work, someone sent me a copy of his article with regards to Mediterranean way of eating and I found out some key points why people in Mediterranean countries somehow managed to stay fit and live longer than those people living in the West.
Here are some of diet tips:
1. High consumption of good fats (whole grains, nuts)
2. Eggs 3-4 times a week
3. High consumption of olive oil
4. 1-2 glasses of wine
5. Fish (moderate red meat intake)
Based on the list above, I guess, the only difference from my diet is the olive oil and wine consumption. We have wine only in special occasion and use olive oil in salads.
