From the Mediterranean Diet to the Microbiome
Diet quality in nutrition research is frequently characterized by how closely the dietary pattern adheres to either a “Mediterranean” or a “Western” pattern. The Mediterranean diet is characterized as one that is rich in olive oil, fruit and vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seafood; moderate in alcohol intake; and low in intakes of red meats and saturated fats. This is in contrast to the “Western” diet typified by the consumption of sugar-sweetened soft drinks, processed meats, and refined grains.

Abstract

Diet quality in nutrition research is frequently characterized by how closely the dietary pattern adheres to either a “Mediterranean” or a “Western” pattern. The Mediterranean diet is characterized as one that is rich in olive oil, fruit and vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seafood; moderate in alcohol intake; and low in intakes of red meats and saturated fats. This is in contrast to the “Western” diet typified by the consumption of sugar-sweetened soft drinks, processed meats, and refined grains.
