A traditional Mediterranean Diet is rich in whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and olive oil. These are the diet's trademarks. It's also high in fish and seafood, with moderate amounts of red meat and dairy products. Wine is consumed with meals on occasion.
The heartiness of the diet retains most of the nutritional value. The diet is low in cholesterol and similarly low in fat. This is due to the large amount of olive oil. This oil is used for cooking rather than butter or lard, which was the case with past diets.
Studies have shown that a Mediterranean Diet may help reduce the risk for certain diseases, such as stroke and cancer, but there are other benefits too. It can help prevent and control diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), osteoporosis, metabolic syndrome (a combination of obesity with other risk factors for coronary artery disease), and many others.

A typical diet for someone following the Mediterranean Diet would include several fruits and vegetables per day. Vegetables should be cooked or eaten raw. Fruits are healthy when they aren't eaten with added sugar. A diet rich in vegetables can be combined with lean meats, fish, and low-fat dairy products. Olive oil is the key ingredient in this diet and helps protect against heart disease by reducing bad cholesterol (LDL) while increasing good cholesterol (HDL).
