Mediterranean diet

The Mediterranean style of eating has also been named as the best food and diet for 2023. For the sixth year in a row, the Mediterranean style of eating won the title of the best overall diet, the benefits of which are also supported by science.

In the report by US News & World Report, which oversees the annual diet rankings, foods from the Mediterranean are ranked first in the diet categories of best diet for healthy eating and best plant-based diet.

“We are always looking for more health conditions that we can address. But there is often not enough scientific data examining diet X and condition X. However, bone and joint health is an area where there is a fair amount of scientific literature. We also recognize that our population is aging, so focusing on diets that can enhance quality of life in older individuals is an important element. The Mediterranean diet is not just about the foods around the Mediterranean. You can take the lessons and approach of the Mediterranean eating model and apply it to any kitchen in any country," said Gretel Schueller, author of the report.

What is the Mediterranean style of eating?

Numerous studies have found that the Mediterranean diet can reduce the risk of diabetes, high cholesterol, dementia, memory loss, depression and breast cancer. The diet, which is more of an eating style than a strict diet, has also been linked to stronger bones, a healthier heart and longer life.

The diet features simple, plant-based cooking, with the majority of each meal focused on fruits and vegetables, whole grains, beans and seeds, with few nuts and a heavy emphasis on extra virgin olive oil. Fats other than olive oil, such as butter, are rarely, if ever, consumed, and sugar and refined foods are reserved for special occasions.

Red meat is used sparingly, usually just to flavor a dish. Eating fish, which is packed with omega-3 fatty acids, is encouraged, while eggs, milk and poultry are eaten in much smaller portions than in the traditional Western diet.

Social interactions during meals and exercise are the cornerstones of the Mediterranean style of eating.
