The Mediterranean diet (pdf 592.83 kB) is unlike any other because it's a way to eat for maintaining weight loss. The basics are fresh fruits, vegetables, legumes, pasta products. The anchor of the diet is olive oil and the often ignored nutrient is salt which is olive oil's alter ego. Salt is a main ingredient in making the staples of the Mediteranean Diet such as olives, prosciutto, and boiling pasta. Without salt the diet would not be palatable. So take this article to heart and then take someone out to lunch or dinner. As they say in Italy: "Buon appetito!"
