Özet
The
Mediterranean tradition offers a cuisine rich in colours, aromas and memories,
which support the taste and the spirit of those who live in harmony with
nature. The success of the Mediterranean diet is its composition: a varied diet
characterized by a high consumption of vegetables, fruits, grains, legumes,
fish, eggs and extra virgin olive oil as the main cooking fat along with a
moderate intake of meat and wine. In the medical field the Mediterranean diet
has become an important aspect to be monitored at all stages of life. Also
within the past century, many benefits of extra virgin olive oil have been
scientifically investigated and acknowledged.
