We post another proof of the benefits of the Mediterranean diet. Of course we can not consume the diet of our grandparents as many would like (the average energy expenditure has changed a lot since then). But surely Our model of this power must be preserved. This is a priority, a key issue for public health in our country.


Follow "really" the Mediterranean diet provides substantial protection against all-cause mortality and incidence of major chronic degenerative diseases such as heart and blood vessels, cancer, Parkinson's disease and to Alzheimer's disease. A repeat with scientific arguments even more solid than in the past is a meta-analysis, that a review of available data from previous studies conducted by specialists dellìUniversità diFirenze and the University Hospital Careggi, published in the prestigious British Journal Medcil.

STUDY - The research considered by researchers Tuscans 'isolated' eating habits and health status of more than 1.5 million people followed from 3 to 18 years. All the studies reviewed used a numerical score, called the score of adherence to calculate what was faithfully followed the Mediterranean diet. The analysis of these data showed that those who adhered strictly to a Mediterranean diet had significant improvement of health status with a 9% reduction of total mortality of 9% of mortality from cardiovascular causes, 13% of ' incidence of diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, and 6% cancer incidence or mortality.

CONSEQUENCES - The results of this study have important implications for public health, especially in reducing the risk of premature death in the general population. Also confirmed the recommendations of current guidelines of the major scientific societies that encourage a Mediterranean dietary profile for the prevention of major chronic diseases. The Mediterranean diet includes a generous consumption of fruits, vegetables, complex carbohydrates, olive oil, fish, and less meat, sausages, cheese and dairy products.

BUT THE ITALIANS ARE NOT THE - But if on the one hand, the study from the University of Florence is good news, the other is "disappointing," given that in Italy the Mediterranean diet is not always followed. According to data provided by Coldiretti, in fact. has steadily decreased the consumption of products that ccostituiscono the foundation. In 2008, the fruit fell by 2.6 per cent, that of olive oil by 2.8, that of bread and the vegetables of 2.5 -0.8. Certainly some of the responsibility is sscrivere growth of prices for those kinds alimenmtari, but it is undeniable that the lifestyle and tastes of Italians are inexorably over the past decades 'occidentalizzat', moving increasingly toward a diet rich in meat and animal fats in general.
