The Mediterranean diet emphasizes healthy fats such as olive oil and avocados, high-quality proteins, vegetables, nuts, and seeds.
The diet is based on the traditional eating plans of Italian, Greek, Spanish, and other Mediterranean cultures, and incorporates Giada’s Italian background.
The Mediterranean diet has been shown to promote weight loss, longevity and dramatically curb inflammation, TheImproper reported.
