Mediterranean Diet in Good Standing
Proven food facts for heart health still remain short. But new research on over 200 studies involving millions of people still validate that by consuming an abundant amount of fresh vegetables, whole grains, beans/legumes, olive oil and numerous other healthy food choices in their plan (generally this food plan is lower in calories, higher in fiber, and has healthier fats) promote heart health. The "white" over processed foods, fatty red meat/ high-fat dairy and trans fats are still some of the biggest food no-no's.
It's interesting that studies always have to be done to prove that whole foods are usually the best to consume. Isn't it just common sense that when you alter a food (by processing it) it will lose much of its inherent positive health benefits? And hasn't fish always been touted as a healthy food even before the omega-3 studies?
