I always wonder this:
Is the Mediterranean diet the actual food eaten in the region
*or*
The type of eating that Americans imagine when they think about the Mediterranean?
Im just going to throw this in- Lasagna could be considered Mediterranean.0 -

Yeah, this! If the doctor really just said "try Med" then that's super vague and TO should ask for clarification on what the doctor recommends exactly. And what the aim of it is. Also, how would it differ to TO eats currently?0 -
I also wonder if some of the benefits of the Mediterranean diet are due to the quality of the food i.e. fresh produce, grown locally, picked and eaten promptly. The vitamin content must be higher than the tasteless fruit and veg which is picked before it’s ripe and air freighted around the world. Or the produce which takes MONTHS to ripen because the weather is so bad (yes chillies and peppers in my garden in the UK - I’m looking at you).
I just know that tomatoes and cucumber grown in the soil in the sun, rather than hydroponically in filtered UV, taste sooo much better.0
