Mediterranean Diet Pyramid

Edit links

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

American nutrition guide based on Mediterranean Diet

TheMediterranean Diet Pyramid is anutrition guide that was developed by theOldways Preservation Trust, theHarvard School of Public Health, and theWorld Health Organization in 1993. It summarizes theMediterranean Diet pattern of eating, suggesting the types and frequency of foods that should be enjoyed every day.

The diet is closely tied to areas ofolive oil cultivation in theMediterranean region.The pyramid, structured in light of current nutrition research and representing a healthy Mediterranean diet, is based on the dietary patterns ofCrete,Greece and southernItaly circa 1960 at a time when the rates of chronic disease were among the lowest in the world, and adult life expectancy was among the highest, even though medical services were limited. These findings were established in large part by scientistAncel Keys.

The pyramid is divided into daily, weekly, and monthly frequencies, but does not recommend serving sizes.^[1]

Research suggests that the Mediterranean diet consumption pattern promotes good health and longevity. Studies linking the Mediterranean diet and decreased risk of illnesses such aslung disease andAlzheimer's disease, as well as protection againstallergies andasthma have been published.
