Indeed our 🇮🇹 member CIE points out that by adopting a Mediterranean diet it is possible to save over 2,000 litres of water per day, thanks to the reduced consumption of products of animal origin.

Low consumption of animal products is good for both health and the planet. According to our 🇬🇷 member @ekpizo@twitter.com, following the Mediterranean Diet not only has benefits for consumers’ health but also for the environment as a whole:

As our 🇮🇹 member @Adiconsum@twitter.com underlines though, food habits in Mediterranean countries, for many reasons, do not always follow the healthy eating advice above. Diet-related diseases are now increasingly an issue for consumers in these countries

What does the #MedDiet consist of? Our 🇬🇷 member KEPKA says it should include:
🍅Lots of fruits & veg
🫒 olive oil (the healthiest source of fat)
🥛🐟moderate consumption of dairy & fish
🥩limited consumption of red meat & saturates

Our 🇮🇹 member @Altroconsumo@twitter.com notes that although we are only celebrating its 22nd UNESCO anniversary, the #MedDiet is an age-old model. Scientists have recognised its health benefits (such as preventing cardiovascular diseases) for many years.

Happy Anniversary to the Mediterranean Diet! Today marks 22 years since @UNESCO@twitter.com officially recognised this dietary model. We all know that the #MedDiet is good for us but what does it mean in practice? Check out our Mediterranean members' articles ⬇️
