Frequently Asked Questions

What should I eat in a day on a Mediterranean diet?

A Mediterranean diet focuses on healthy fats and protein and lots of fresh fruit, vegetables, whole grains. A Mediterranean diet should contain seven to ten daily servings (or more) of vegetables and three to four 3-ounce servings (or less) of lean proteins such as chicken and fish. It is also recommended to consume moderate amounts of healthy fats like olive oils and nuts. To ensure a balanced diet, aim for three portions of whole grains each day, such as quinoa or barley.

Consuming unhealthy foods regularly can make it difficult to avoid them. Reduced-fat dairy products should be avoided if possible. Because of the potential for mercury contamination, fish should be limited to three meals per week.

To ensure you're getting the most from your Mediterranean diet experience every day, it can help to plan meals - paying particular attention to ingredients included within chosen dishes that provide the heart and health benefits associated with this dietary pattern accordingly over time.

Mediterranean food is delicious and rich in nutrients. It can be a fun way to eat. For the best health, choose high-quality proteins like wild-caught fish and grass-fed meats, as well as organic eggs, to ensure you are eating healthy meals. Additionally, incorporate heart-healthy fats from nuts, olives, avocados, extra virgin olive oil, and coconut oil. Include plenty of fresh and/or freeze fruits and vegetables, whole grains like quinoa and barley in your meals, as well as whole grains such oats, quinoa and barley. Finally, limit unhealthy fats, added sugar, processed foods, starches, red meat, and processed meats.

Can I use regular olive oil instead of extra virgin olive oil?

Extra virgin olive olive oil can be substituted for regular olive olive oil in the Mediterranean diet. Extra Virgin Olive Oil, (EVOO), has a higher quality, more nutritional benefits, and a milder flavor. Regular olive oil, however, is still an option. Regular olive oil can be used for daily meals such as stir-frying and roasting vegetables. This oil is cheaper than EVOO. Some even believe it can be used for higher heat applications, such as deep frying. It doesn't contain the same nutrients as EVOO. So make sure you get all of these benefits in your diet.

What are the fundamental principles of the Mediterranean Diet?

The Mediterranean diet is a lifestyle choice known for focusing on healthful and nutritious food choices and regular physical activity. This diet emphasizes fruits and vegetables, whole grains and legumes, as well as healthy fats like olive oil and nuts. There is also a moderate amount of dairy products, fish and meat. Red wine is encouraged in moderation. The basic principles of the Mediterranean diet are:

1. Consume primarily plant-based food, such as fruits and vegetables, whole-grain breads and cereals, beans (legumes), seeds, nuts and seeds, healthy fats from olive oils and olives, yogurt (preferably nonfat), fish (at minimum twice per week), and small amounts lean poultry and red meat approximately once per week. Avoid fried foods.
2. Choose fresh ingredients over pre-packaged processed food items whenever possible.
3. To add flavor to your dishes, you can use herbs rather than salt.
4. You can incorporate physical activity into your day, such as going for a walk after dinner and taking part in a class.
5. Enjoy meals with family and friends and savor the experience of sharing food.
6. Pay attention to the tastes, textures and smells of your food. This is mindfulness eating. This will help you recognize when you are full and satisfied.

Can I drink alcohol on the Mediterranean diet?

It is possible to have moderate amounts of alcohol as part the Mediterranean diet. You should limit your drinking to just one glass per day for men and 1 glass for women. Dry wines, beer and spirits made with only natural ingredients such brandy vodka, whiskey or gin are acceptable beverages. Avoid heavy spirits like cocktails due to their high levels of sugar. A daily intake of water or herbal drinks can keep your body hydrated and reduce sugar cravings.
