The Mediterranean diet is based on the
food pyramid. This type of system is
used by everybody.
• In the Mediterranean diet what you
must eat everyday are vegetables, salad
and fruit, cereals, breads, pasta and
rice.
• What you eat less are dairy products
and meat, but the fish is eaten several
times a weeks.
• While fats are always present in the
Mediterranean diet and in the food
pyramid but in small portions.
• The trick of the lifestyle is also to eat
everything, except junk food, and to do
physical activity every day.
• The true Mediterranean diet is based
on a portion, a single meal dish
accompanied by vegetables. In short,
the secret lies in addition to the
ingredients, in the moderate quantity.
