Importantly, these beneficial metabolic effects are greater in the presence of underlying insulin resistance. In a detailed analysis within the Nurses' Health Study, trans fat from partially hydrogenated vegetable oils (absent in traditional Mediterranean diets) was most strongly related to risk of heart disease, and both polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fat were inversely associated with risk. Epidemiologic evidence has also supported beneficial effects of higher intakes of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, fish, and daily consumption of moderate amounts of alcohol. Together with regular physical activity and not smoking, our analyses suggest that over 80% of coronary heart disease, 70% of stroke, and 90% of type 2 diabetes can be avoided by healthy food choices that are consistent with the traditional Mediterranean diet.

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

Two of the main types of diets that have been recommended to help overweight people reduce their risks are a low-fat/high-carbohydrate diet and the Mediterranean diet.
The Mediterranean diet is a moderate-fat diet, with:
a high intake of monounsaturated fat (particularly from olive oil),
high intake of plant proteins (like legumes),
lots of whole grains but low intake of refined grains and sweets, and
high intake of fish but low consumption of red meat.
The trials comparing a Mediterranean diet with a low-fat diet in overweight people were analyzed by an international team of researchers. The team was led by researchers from the Basel University Hospital in Switzerland.
After two years, people in the Mediterranean diet group lost an average of around 4.8 pounds (2.2kg). The people in the low-fat diet group lost less weight: an average of 1.2 pounds, or just over half a kilo.
People in the Mediterranean diet group also lowered cardiovascular risk factors like cholesterol levels and blood pressure more than people on low-fat diets managed to do.
non c'è bisogno nemmeno di commentare, gli studi spazzano straordinariamente tutte le chiacchiere e parlano da soli.
