Tip of The Week

The Mystery of the Mediterranean

In America, eating Italian, Greek, or other European cuisine turns into stuffing ourselves with delicious foods that tends to be full of carbohydrates and calories! Following a real Mediterranean diet can have numerous health benefits especially for your heart. This is because the food is fresh and doesn't have preservatives or additives.  This style of eating incorporates tons of fruits and vegetables which provide nutrients to keep your bodies replenished and your immune system strong.

Nuts, seeds, and of course, olive oil provide monounsaturated fats which will help to keep your cholesterol in check. Add fish, such as mackerel, salmon, tuna, and sardines to your diet at least twice a week to account for omega-3 fatty acids that will further protect your heart and arteries. Consuming dairy products is wise but make sure they are low in fat.  Finally, drinking a 5 ounce glass of red wine a couple nights a week is believed to reduce blood clots and provide antioxidants. But wait, before you break out the wine bottle, be aware that drinking in excess will lead to other health problems down the line. 

Interested? Try keeping fruits, vegetables, and nuts such as berries, carrot sticks, or almonds around for a mid-day snack. Try making your own pasta sauce using eggplants, tomatoes, and other household vegetables instead using a store bought brand.
