The Mediterranean Diet is more than a diet. It is a lifelong living style. You have to adopt it, as a religion. Decades ago, it was the natural way of life of many people around the Mediterranean Basin, especially in Spain, Italy and Greece. High activity, Mediterranean nutrition, anti stress attitudes and not much money shaped a culture that was declared on 2010 Immaterial Human Heritage by UNESCO. By the way, it is the only diet to have been awarded this recognition. Unfortunately, the original diet has changed in the mentioned countries, where many responsible people are struggling to return to what is considered to be the healthiest nutrition pattern in the world. The best anti aging and long life culture!
