Abstract:

The Mediterranean diet is a food pattern incorporated into a set of lifestyle practices typical of Greece and Southern Italy in the early 1960s, where adult life expectancy was notably high, while rates of diet-related chronic diseases were low. The Mediterranean diet was described initially by the work of LG Allbaugh, commissioned by the Rockefeller foundation and the Greek government post-WW2 on the Greek island of Crete in 1948. The Mediterranean diet was accepted as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in 2013. The primary advantages of the Mediterranean diet include health benefits pertinent to cardiovascular, metabolic syndrome, and cognition.

Abstract:

Ovaj će rad nastojati u kratkim crtama opisati konceptualne transformacije mediteranske prehrane od druge polovine 20. stoljeća do danas. Ovaj nesumnjivo popularni prehrambeni model, koji objedinjuje različite prehrambene kulture Sredozemlja, isprva je prepoznat kao zdravstveno blagotvoran, nudeći pomoć u prevenciji kardiovaskularnih bolesti. Početni impuls globalne popularnosti prehrambene kulture Sredozemlja, koji dolazi iz medicinskih i nutricionističkih znanosti, dugoročno je pripomogao pojednostavljenju složenih prehrambenih sustava Sredozemlja koji se od 2000-ih počinju prepoznavati kao homogeni kulinarski i kulturni obrazac. Nakon što je mediteranska prehrana 2010. godine upisana na UNESCO-ovu Reprezentativnu listu nematerijalne kulturne baštine čovječanstva, razumijevanje ove prehrambene kulture nesumnjivo se promijenilo. Danas mediteranska prehrana dobiva svoje nove artikulacije unutar politika održivog razvoja, očuvanja bioraznolikosti i ekosustava koje dugoročno nastoje razviti nove političke i ekonomske modele u okviru nužne transformacije trenutnih prehrambenih sustava prema zelenijim i održivijim rješenjima.

Abstract:

The Seven Countries Study showed that traditional Japanese and Mediterranean diets are protective against cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The Japanese diet is considered the healthiest because it provides Japanese populations with the highest longevity and health. DASH and Mediterranean-style diets are also considered healthy diets, although the Indo-Mediterranean-style diet may provide better protective effects among patients with CVDs compared to other diets. The concept of the Indo-Mediterranean type of diet was developed after examining its role in the prevention of CVDs in India, the value of which was confirmed by a landmark study from France: the Lyon Heart Study. These workers found that consuming an alpha-linolenic acid-rich Mediterranean-style diet can cause a significant decline in CVDs and all-cause mortality. Later in 2018, the PREDIMED study from Spain also reported that a modified Mediterranean-style diet can cause a significant decline in CVDs, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and cancer. The Indo-Mediterranean diet may be superior to DASH and Mediterranean diets because it contains millets, porridge, and beans, as well as spices such as turmeric, cumin, fenugreek, and coriander, which may have better anti-inflammatory and cardioprotective effects. These foods are rich sources of nutrients, flavonoids, calcium, and iron, as well as proteins, which are useful in the prevention of under- and overnutrition and related diseases. It is known that DASH and Mediterranean-style diets have a similar influence on CVDs. However, the Indo-Mediterranean-style diet may be as good as the Japanese diet due to improved food diversity and the high content of antioxidants.

Abstract:

Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, especially in patients older than 65. The prevalence of AF increased 3-fold over the last 50 years. All treatments, such as cardioversion, ablation, and anticoagulation, are associated with risks and relapses. Besides, these strategies may not apply to all patients with AF. Adherence to the Mediterranean dietary pattern is assumed as an ideal nutritional model for AF. Yet, there is a gap on 1) how adherence to the Mediterranean diet prevents AF and 2) how the Mediterranean diet affects complications in patients with AF. A scoping review was performed in June 2022 to identify studies focusing on the Mediterranean diet and AF. A total of 334 articles were retrieved and 12 met inclusion criteria. Six studies were interventions (n=6) and six were observational studies (n=6). In the six intervention studies, five were nested within the PREDIMED (Prevención con Dieta Mediterránea) study. In AF occurrence (n=6), the results were inconsistent. The Mediterranean diet plus extra virgin olive oil was significantly and favorably related to AF, however, Mediterranean diet plus nuts was not, when compared with the low-fat diet; Mediterranean diet modified how long chain acylcarnitine affected development of AF but not how tryptophan or arginine metabolites affected AF. In patients diagnosed with AF (n=6), Mediterranean diet favorably related to adverse cardiovascular events, oxidative stress, and Mediterranean diet adherence, and did not affect anticoagulation for those taking anticoagulants. Further research is needed to examine how the Mediterranean diet affects the development of AF.

Abstract:

AbstractObjectiveTo characterize the multiple dimensions and benefits of the Mediterranean diet as a sustainable diet, in order to revitalize this intangible food heritage at the country level; and to develop a multidimensional framework – the Med Diet 4.0 – in which four sustainability benefits of the Mediterranean diet are presented in parallel: major health and nutrition benefits, low environmental impacts and richness in biodiversity, high sociocultural food values, and positive local economic returns.DesignA narrative review was applied at the country level to highlight the multiple sustainable benefits of the Mediterranean diet into a single multidimensional framework: the Med Diet 4.0.Setting/subjectsWe included studies published in English in peer-reviewed journals that contained data on the characterization of sustainable diets and of the Mediterranean diet. The methodological framework approach was finalized through a series of meetings, workshops and conferences where the framework was presented, discussed and ultimately refined.ResultsThe Med Diet 4.0 provides a conceptual multidimensional framework to characterize the Mediterranean diet as a sustainable diet model, by applying principles of sustainability to the Mediterranean diet.ConclusionsBy providing a broader understanding of the many sustainable benefits of the Mediterranean diet, the Med Diet 4.0 can contribute to the revitalization of the Mediterranean diet by improving its current perception not only as a healthy diet but also a sustainable lifestyle model, with country-specific and culturally appropriate variations. It also takes into account the identity and diversity of food cultures and systems, expressed within the notion of the Mediterranean diet, across the Mediterranean region and in other parts of the world. Further multidisciplinary studies are needed for the assessment of the sustainability of the Mediterranean diet to include these new dimensions.

Abstract:

Die mediterrane Ernährungsweise ist charakterisiert durch einen hohen Anteil an einfach-ungesättigten Fettsäuren (speziell Olivenöl) bei geringer Zufuhr gesättigter Fettsäuren (Fette tierischer Herkunft außer Fisch). Große Mengen an Früchten, Gemüsen, Cerealien (Getreideprodukte, vor allem Brot) und mäßiger (aber auch regelmäßiger) Weinkonsum sind weitere typische Merkmale. Entgegen landläufiger Meinungen spielt dabei die Art des Olivenöls eine untergeordnete Rolle, d.h. kaltgepreßte, extra virgine Olivenöle scheinen keine zusätzlichen günstigen Gesundheitseffekte gegenüber üblichen Olivenölen mit sich zu bringen. Eine Alternative zum Olivenöl ist das Rapsöl, welches eine ähnliche Zusammensetzung hat. Aufgrund neuester wissenschaftlicher Arbeiten führt die mediterrane Ernährungsweise, sekundärprophylaktisch eingesetzt nach Myokardinfarkt, zu einer signifikanten Erniedrigung der Gesamtmortalität, des kardialen Todes und nicht tödlicher Reinfarkte. Neben der günstigen Wirkung auf die Blutlipide (Erniedrigung des LDL-Cholesterins und Erhöhung des HDL-Cholesterins) durch einfach-ungesättigte Fettsäuren werden weitere gesundheitsfördernde Inhaltsstoffe der mediterranen Diät diskutiert. Antioxidative Vitamine (Vitamin E, C und Betakarotin) und phenolische Substanzen (z.B. Flavonoide, wie Quercetin und Resveratrol) führen neben anderen Wirkungen zu einer verminderten Oxidationsrate des LDL-Cholesterins, welches erst in oxidierter Form atherogen wirkt.

Abstract:

We discuss different aspects of the Mediterranean diet, including the historical, anthropological and cultural. The different foods that are characteristic of the Mediterranean diet are used to create all kinds of recipes, which are valued in gastronomic terms and are also highly nutritional. Bread, wine and extra virgin olive oil have been symbols of civilisation and prosperity for the peoples of the Mediterranean for thousands of years. The key elements of the Mediterranean diet are variety, moderation and the predominance of vegetables over food sourced from animals. These are complemented by a philosophy of life that values personal relationships, the pursuit of happiness and physical activity. A colourful cuisine has developed around the Mediterranean, which is rich and aromatic and which might be said to live in harmony with nature. The Mediterranean diet is about sharing, enjoying conversation around the table, and relaxing after the meal with a siesta. With the globalisation of food, the chronobiological rhythm of food intake has become skewed, and food industrialisation has led to the homogenisation of eating behaviours. The great chefs of today are artists, bold and dazzlingly creative, masters of harmony and subtlety, arousing hedonistic pleasures with this new form of artistic expression.

Abstract:

AbstractObjective:To analyse the role of various aspects of the Mediterranean diet in several common epithelial cancers, including digestive and selected non-digestive tract neoplasms.Design:Systematic analysis of data from a series of case-control studies.Setting:Northern Italy, between 1983 and 1998.Subjects:Over 12 000 cases of 20 cancer sites and 10 000 controls.Results:For most epithelial cancers, the risk decreased with increasing vegetable and fruit consumption, with relative risk (RR) between 0.3 and 0.7 for the highest versus the lowest tertile. For digestive tract cancers, population-attributable risks for low intake of vegetables and fruit ranged between 15 and 40%. A protective effect was observed also for breast, female genital tract, urinary tract and a few other epithelial neoplasms. A number of antioxidants and other micronutrients showed an inverse relationship with cancer risk, but the main components responsible for the favourable effect of a diet rich in vegetables and fruit remain undefined. Fish tended to be another favourable diet indicator. In contrast, subjects reporting frequent red meat intake showed RRs above unity for several common neoplasms. Intake of whole-grain foods was related to a reduced risk of several types of cancer, particularly of the upper digestive tract. This may be due to a favourable role of fibre, but the issue is still open to discussion. In contrast, refined grain intake and, consequently, glycaemic load and glycaemic index were associated with increased risk of different types of cancer including, among others, breast and colorectal.Conclusions:A low-risk diet for cancer in the Mediterranean would imply increasing the consumption of fruit and vegetables, as well as avoiding increasing the intakes of meat and refined carbohydrates. Further, olive oil and other unsaturated fats, which are also typical aspects of the Mediterranean diet, should be preferred to saturated ones.

A protective role on depression has been suggested for both nutrients.DesignCross-sectional analysis from the SUN (Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra) prospective cohort study. Data from 9670 participants (4211 men and 5459 women) were analised. Logistic regression analyses were fitted to assess the association between B-vitamins and w-3 fatty acids intake (quintiles) and the prevalence of depression.ResultsFolate intake was inversely associated with depression prevalence among men, especially smokers. Among women, B12 vitamin intake was inversely associated with depression, especially among smokers and physically active women. No significant associations were observed for w-3 fatty acids intake.ConclusionsThe adherence to a Mediterranean Dietary Pattern ensures an adequate intake of fruits, nuts, vegetables, cereals, legumes or fish, important sources of nutrients linked to depression prevention.

Abstract:

Adherence to the Mediterranean diet has been shown to lower the risk of developing chronic non-communicable diseases like cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Improvements in depression, participation in daily activities in older individuals, weight loss and a reduction in adverse pregnancy outcomes are associated with adherence to the Mediterranean diet. The number of studies that have evaluated barriers to adherence to the Mediterranean diet in the US and, in particular, in racial and ethnic minority populations within the US are few. Among Native American and Alaskan Native populations, studies evaluating traditional or alternative Mediterranean diet adherence for chronic non-infectious diseases is unavailable. Mediterranean diet scoring instruments used in studies in European and Mediterranean countries and among white participants in the US fail to capture the dietary patterns of racial and ethnic minority populations. In this narrative review, the food components of the traditional Mediterranean diet are discussed, adherence to the Mediterranean diet is examined in Mediterranean and non-Mediterranean countries and barriers preventing adherence to the Mediterranean diet in the US and among racial and ethnic minority populations is reviewed. Recommendations for improving nutrition education and intervention and for increasing adherence and cultural adaptions to the Mediterranean diet are provided.

Abstract:

Several scoring methods for the Mediterranean diet, which is considered as a healthy diet, are available, but studies that have compared more than one of these scores are rare. In addition, the applicability of Mediterranean diet scoring has not been sufficiently examined outside of Mediterranean regions. We collected data on the Mediterranean diet during pregnancy and the incidence of type 1 allergies in offspring from the Japan Environment and Children’s Study. Using multiple Mediterranean diet scoring methods, we analyzed the effect of adherence to the Mediterranean diet in pregnancy on the allergies of the offspring. Overall, 46,532 pairs of mothers and children were analyzed. In Japan, a high adherence to the Mediterranean diet during pregnancy was associated with a lower incidence of asthma in the offspring (odds ratio: 0.896, 95% confidence interval: 0.835, 0.962). Furthermore, we found that the selection of the Mediterranean diet scoring method and the setting of the reference value significantly altered the results. Our findings suggest that an appropriate selection of scoring methods and a reference value for food items are important to analyze the effects of adherence to the Mediterranean diet inside and outside of Mediterranean regions.

Abstract:

The incidence of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and gestational diabetes has also increased with the increase in obesity. Gestational diabetes can cause various complications during pregnancy that can adversely affect birth, mother and baby. The Mediterranean diet both reduces the risk of developing gestational diabetes and is efficient in regulating glycemia after gestational diabetes has occurred. Aim: In this study, we aimed to review the literature regarding the role of the Mediterranean diet in gestational diabetes. Material and Method: This review contains current information about Gestational Diabetes and the Mediterranean diet. In the research, a literature search was performed using databases such as Science Direct and PubMed. Current and comprehensive data were used to collect this research. Results: Many studies have indicated that the Mediterranean diet is the healthiest diet model in the world. It has been proven that it reduces the risk of preterm birth, prevents the formation of gestational diabetes and is effective in glycemic regulation. Conclusion: All expectant mothers and pregnant women at risk of developing gestational diabetes should be encouraged to adopt the Mediterranean diet because of its effects during pregnancy and childbirth, as well as the long-term health benefits of mothers and babies.

Abstract:

Diet is a modifiable component of lifestyle that could influence breast cancer development. The Mediterranean dietary pattern is considered one of the healthiest of all dietary patterns. Adherence to the Mediterranean diet protects against diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Reported consumption of a Mediterranean diet pattern was associated with lower breast cancer risk for women with all subtypes of breast cancer, and a Western diet pattern was associated with greater risk. In this review, we contrast the available epidemiological breast cancer data, comparing the impact of consuming a Mediterranean diet to the Western diet. Furthermore, we will review the preclinical data highlighting the anticancer molecular mechanism of Mediterranean diet consumption in both cancer prevention and therapeutic outcomes. Diet composition is a major constituent shaping the gut microbiome. Distinct patterns of gut microbiota composition are associated with the habitual consumption of animal fats, high-fiber diets, and vegetable-based diets. We will review the impact of Mediterranean diet on the gut microbiome and inflammation. Outside of the gut, we recently demonstrated that Mediterranean diet consumption led to distinct microbiota shifts in the mammary gland tissue, suggesting possible anticancer effects by diet on breast-specific microbiome. Taken together, these data support the anti-breast-cancer impact of Mediterranean diet consumption.

Abstract:

The objective of this work was to review nutritional components of the Mediterranean diet. The Mediterranean diet is not a specific diet plan or diet program but a collection of eating habits that are traditionally followed by the people of the Mediterranean region. There are at least 16 countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea and food habits vary between these countries according to culture, ethnic background and religion. The Mediterranean diet, containing olive oil, fish, fruits and vegetable is associated with a low rate of cardivascular and cancer diseases. This diet is rich in phytosterols, squalene, dietary fibre, antioxidants, phenolic substances and polyunsaturated acids.

Abstract:

AbstractThe aim of the present article is to discuss the role of the Mediterranean diet as a part of Human Culture and Intangible Cultural Heritage. Until the present, Mediterranean diet has been observed as a healthy model of medical behaviour. After its proposal as a Cultural Heritage of the Humanity at UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization), Mediterranean diet is actually being observed as a part of Mediterranean culture and starting its concept as an equivalent of Mediterranean Cultural Food System or Mediterranean Culinary System. At the candidacy of Mediterranean diet as a World Cultural Intangible Heritage to be presented at UNESCO in 2008, this new conception is making sense. A new point of view that will be capital in the future discussions about the Mediterranean diet, their challenges and their future perspectives.

Abstract:

BackgroundPrevious research suggests that the Mediterranean diet (a diet high in fruits and vegetables, lean protein, legumes, whole grains, and olive oils) provides protective effects against colorectal cancer. However, there has been little research to determine how the Mediterranean diet could help prevent the recurrence of colorectal cancer following chemotherapy treatment.ObjectiveThis systematic review assesses the impact of the Mediterranean diet on the rate of recurrence following colorectal cancer treatment.MethodsA systematic search on PubMed, UNE Library, and EMBASE was conducted to find all research studies assessing the Mediterranean diet and its effects on colorectal cancer and post-treatment effects. Article titles and abstracts were screened for relevance in addition to full article screening for eligibility and were quality rated based on ANDEAL criteria.ResultsSixteen studies met the eligibility criteria and, as a result, were included. One study assessed lifestyle factors; three studies assessed the components of the Mediterranean diet and their effects on colorectal cancer; one study assessed the dietary inflammatory index and its impact on colorectal cancer; five studies assessed adherence to the Mediterranean diet; four studies assessed diet following cancer treatments; and two studies assessed long-term nutritional intervention on cancer recurrence. The results revealed that the Mediterranean diet has a positive impact on reducing the risk of colorectal cancer, with potential health benefits following treatment for colorectal cancer. Limitations in analyzing results include being a time-locked study, inability to access all articles on the topic, use of English-only articles, and limitation of search terms utilized.ConclusionsWhile previous research reveals evidence that the Mediterranean diet reduces the risk of colorectal cancer, there is compelling data to suggest that adherence the Mediterranean diet, as a normal diet pattern following treatment for colorectal cancer, could reduce the rate of recurrence. Future research is needed to examine the effects of the Mediterranean diet following colorectal cancer treatment.

Abstract:

The Mediterranean Diet is a dietary pattern characterized by increased intake of olive oil, vegetables, fruits, cereals, nuts and pulses/legumes; as well as moderate intake of fish and other meat, dairy products and red wine. This dietary pattern has been associated with reduced risk for non-communicable diseases, including cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, certain cancers, and dementia. The importance of modifying lifestyle risk factors to reduce these diseases is evidence by the increased obesity rates and aging of the global population. To examine associations between adherence to the Mediterranean Diet and non-communicable disease risk. There is evidence supporting a role for the Mediterranean Diet in primary and secondary non-communicable disease prevention; Furthermore, the Mediterranean Diet has been associated with reduced all-cause mortality.Conclusions: The Mediterranean Diet is associated with demonstrable and measurable health benefits, including non-communicable disease prevention and reduced mortality risk. The Mediterranean Diet is frequently consumed by individuals in Blue Zones.Keywords: Mediterranean diet; olive oil; non-communicable disease risk
