The Mediterranean diet refers to a way of eating that focuses on the traditional foods eaten in the countries that surround the Mediterranean Sea. It’s associated with cultures that emphasize health through more than just food—that also stress physical activity, social gatherings, and a moderate consumption of wine as well.
This style of eating emphasizes plant-based foods, incorporates some animal foods—in particular, fish—and sparingly includes sweets, red meat and processed meats. It has also been well researched and is associated with many health benefits, primarily heart health.
