Do you feel you need to eat healthily? A lot has been said, written, and discussed making changes to your daily diet to preserve your health. There is little doubt that the kind of diet people are used to today, of which junk food and sugar are major components, aren't conducive to good health. Hence, the need for a change is quite understandable.
There is a strong relationship between our Western diet and lots of health issues. Over the last century, food industry practices have changed such that we are increasingly exposed to unhealthy foods without our knowledge or understanding.
Two of the main culprits are the types of food we eat and the way we prepare it. We have replaced the raw ingredients with highly processed foods; increased the intake of saturated and polyunsaturated fats and reduced the intake of good old healthy monosaturated fatty acids, and loaded our meals with empty calories. So, the answer is - yes We all feel we need to eat healthily And rather than making small changes to our diet in a bid to keep our health in check, it is better to completely change the way you eat. By doing this, you ensure that you don't eat anything that is unhealthy and is able to maintain good health.
One of the best ways you can do this is by following the healthy Mediterranean diet based on REAL foods, healthy fats and carbs, and rich in different vitamins and minerals.
The Mediterranean diet is not some new form of dieting, but simply a way of eating and cooking specific foods that are typical for this region. However, most people agree that this is probably the world's healthiest way of eating.
And, no wonder why It is a proper and balanced diet that provides the body with all the necessary nutrients, but at the same time very simple to follow. This diet is based on traditional foods in the Mediterranean countries, and it is characterized by moderate use of meat, milk, cheese; a high intake of complex carbs like potatoes, polenta, pasta, and rice; fresh fruits and veggies which are extremely rich in different vitamins, minerals, and dietary fibers; regular use of fish and other seafood as a real goldmine of precious omega-3 fatty acids; and the excessive use of olive oil in everything you eat. Doesn't sound very complicated, does it?
Numerous amounts of studies were conducted on the subject of Mediterranean cuisine. It has been proven to help a slow and healthy weight loss and give your body valuable nutritional support.
