    Benefits Of The Mediterranean Diet

    The benefits of the natural eating style of the Mediterranean diet include:

    1. Better Heart Health

    As earlier stated, researchers found out that people living in areas where the Mediterranean diet is eaten traditionally have better heart health. They have lower bad cholesterol levels and healthier circulatory systems. This was attributed to the lower consumption of processed sugars, red meat or other processed foods and the eating of a greater amount of vegetables, whole grains and seafood.

    2. Slows Down Neurological Decline

    Naturally, our bodies decline in several ways as we grow older. This decline can be accelerated or slowed down according to our lifestyles and the type of food we eat. The Mediterranean diet consists of a lot of anti-inflammatory foods that help to slow down degeneration of cells in the body, the brain and the nervous system. By slowing down neurological decline, normal mental function and quality of life can be maintained longer into old age. The risk of diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer's and stroke are greatly reduced.

    3. Higher Levels Of Omega-3 Fatty Acids

    Following the Mediterranean diet can lead to a reduction in the risk factors of conditions like arthritis, dementia, depression, heart disease and some cancers. The greater amount of fish and seafood consumed results in higher levels of omega-3 which produces pro-health conditions in the body.

    The Mediterranean diet helps you to maintain a healthy body weight because it is devoid of fattening foods. If you are overweight, it will also help you to lose weight naturally over time.
