The Mediterranean Diet is a traditional way of eating that originated in the Mediterranean region, which includes countries such as Greece, Italy, and Spain. It is based on the consumption of whole foods, such as fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. The diet also includes moderate amounts of fish and poultry, and small amounts of dairy and red meat. Olive oil is the main source of fat in this diet, and it is used in cooking and as a dressing for salads.
