- Learn the Basics Fresh fruits and vegetables are low in fat, high in fiber, and rich in antioxidants. Whole grains contain nutrients and naturally occurring disease-fighting chemicals, while also increasing satiety. Olive oil―the heart disease fighting superhero―keeps bad cholesterol levels low and good cholesterol levels high.
- Pick Your Plan Four 4-week meal plans accommodate different dietary preferences or lifestyles, allowing you to take advantage of the many benefits of the Mediterranean diet with more ease and less stress. Choose from the following plan options: Traditional, Meatless, Seafood-Free, and 30-Minute
