Mediterranean Diet - Explained!
The Mediterranean diet has become increasingly well known over the last few years. Historically, the traditional Mediterranean diet was considered not just an eating plan but a way of life as well. Named for the Mediterranean Ocean that many regions surround, Mediterranean cuisine can vary quite significantly through varying locations. For example, the folk in Tunisia, Greece, Crete, Spain, and Italy, would all eat quite different local Mediterranean foods on a daily basis. However, the Mediterranean diet philosophy remains the same.
Mediterranean Diet Philosophy.
The Mediterranean diet menu is quite different from a Western style diet. Firstly, fat consumption is not only allowed, it is encouraged. However, we are not talking deep fried chicken or doughnut style fats, but the monounsaturated and omega fats found in olives, olive oil, avocados, nuts, and oily fish. Contrary to popular opinion, these types of fats are not bad for you, and have been medically linked to better cardiac health and lower blood cholesterol levels.
- Carbohydrates in the forms of whole grains, fresh fruits, breads, cereals, and pastas are also consumed on a regular basis.
- Red wine is allowed in moderation, but only with a doctor's clearance first.
- Fish, and especially oily fish, is eaten regularly, ideally once or twice a week.
- Dairy products, with a lean towards yogurts, and goat's cheeses, are eaten less frequently.
- Red meats are eaten rarely.
- Eggs and poultry are eaten in moderate amounts.
- Seasonal fresh fruits and vegetables are eaten in unlimited amounts.
Butters and margarines, are not consumed. Other animal and dairy fats are eaten infrequently. Full cream milk, creams, and ice creams should be avoided. Olive oil is used instead of butter on breads, and both olive and canola oils are used for cooking. These are the fats that are known as saturated or trans fats, and are linked to heart disease, stroke, and obesity.
Herbs and spices are used as tasty alternatives to salt.
Nuts, especially almonds, pecans, hazelnuts, and walnuts, are eaten as snacks.
The Mediterranean diet is not just an eating plan but a way of life. Meals are lingered over and enjoyed. Often in the Mediterranean culture, eating is a social event, and meals are shared with loved ones and friends. Meals in the Mediterranean are not eaten on the run, or solo in the car, nor in front of the TV.

Testimonials for The Mediterranean Diet
"Dear Ray - Neat ebook! I wasn't expecting all the recipes as well. This has made it pretty easy for me to carry this out. I have already lost quite a bit. But my friends might read this, so I won't say how much. What I like about this Med. diet is I don't have to feel hungry! If you have a newsletter, will you put me on the list please."
Michael Cohen - Chicago, USA
"Hello Mr Barker - Hope you get this. This is the first diet I have been on where I am not getting hungry all the time. I have tried the exercise part slowly as you said, and it works. I have lost 13 pounds in 4 weeks. But the part I like, is that I feel good all the time. Even my kids have commented on how much happier I am - thanks!"
Julie Sheldon - Seattle, USA
"Hi, I just bought your book. I haven't had it long enough to say if it works or not, but I'm impressed with the research and comparisons to other diets, one comparison in particular. Anyway, I just thought I would let you know I am impressed. I am pleased I went with your ebook and not the other one I was looking at. Your book seems to cover so much ground!"
Samantha King - NY, US
"Ray - This is an impressive diet book - I wish I had found this earlier. I like it cause its thorough and the recipes are great fun. My boyfriend likes them too! We keep going to parties and things so I've only lost 7 pounds so far (3 weeks) but I 've decided to exercise now too and try a little harder not to eat silly things when we go out."
Rebecca Grey - London, UK
"This book makes so much sense! You were right to say that you will feel a lot better if you stay with a healthy diet. I am taking my time and my skin looks great. Better now than I can even remember. I don't like exercise much but I feel so good on this diet that I constantly feel like getting out and about. I don't seem to get as tired any more. I've lost 19 pounds but I've still got heaps to go! Some of my friends wanted your website address so I gave it to them. I'd like to give you my sincere thanks!"
