What is Mediterranean Diet Effectiveness?

The Mediterranean diet is known to have many health benefits. Rich in monounsaturated (good) fats, it reduces risk of heart disease, increases good cholesterol, and delays cognitive decline. It is also associated with longevity.

People with genetic variations in the ADIPOQ gene benefit greatly from the Mediterranean diet, which also helps to facilitate fat loss and improves metabolic health.

How It Affects Your Body

The Mediterranean diet has many health benefits as it can effectively reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and overall mortality.

Since it is rich in plant-based foods and unsaturated fats, it is said to be an ideal dietary model for the heart. It also helps to minimise risk of clogged blood arteries that commonly happen due to accumulation of unhealthy fats, which may lead to heart attack or stroke as the heart would need to pump harder to deliver blood throughout the body.

In a study by Hardman et al. (2016), the Mediterranean diet has also been proven to be beneficial for brain health by reducing the risk of cognitive decline (thinking and memory abilities).

Suggested Lifestyle Changes

Dietary Recommendations:

  1. Consume dairy products such as milk, yoghurt and cheese in moderation.
  2. Maintain a low to moderate consumption of red meat and poultry which contains no fibre and few antioxidants.
  3. Consumption of wine is an optional consideration.
  4. Incorporate various plant-based foods in your diet (eg. fresh vegetables, salads, fruits, nuts, seeds, and olives, rice, pasta, potatoes, bread without butter or margarine, and garlic, onions, and herbs as condiments) as they provide all essential vitamins and minerals, fibres, and other health-promoting elements.
  5. Use olive oil as the main source of fat because it contains a large proportion of monounsaturated fat and is a source of vitamin E. Olive oil helps to facilitate the typical consumption of large amounts of vegetables and legumes by enhancing the taste and energy density.
