A table will heal all ills, one might say. The latest confirmation of this statement comes to us from a recent study by the University of Athens Harokopio coordinated by Dr. Demosthenes Panagiotakos, which reassures us about our Mediterranean diet: it can reduce the metabolic syndrome and, thus, consequently lower the risk of cardiovascular problems.
By now, the science leads us increasingly to believe that health is for our flat! The Mediterranean diet has become part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2010, but has long known the beneficial properties of food to the products of our land. Now, however, medicine confirms the enormous advantages of putting healthy food on the table and genuine.
The study, published in the Journal of American College of Cardiology examined 50 other previous research, assessing the health of over half a million volunteers. The resulting data are unequivocal: the Mediterranean diet offers protected from metabolic syndrome and reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease.
In addition, a diet like that takes away even obesity and high cholesterol, which also fights with hazelnuts. "Our findings add to existing knowledge - said Dr Panagiotakos - and further evidence of the protective function and the significance of lifestyle factors and dietary habits, have when it comes to development and progression of metabolic syndrome" .
Metabolic syndrome is a condition that involves high cardiovascular risks linked also to lifestyle and poor diet. With these results, we're sure to get in shape to pay attention to what we eat, how we cook it and how we serve him. In Italy we have the chance to produce fruit and vegetables in abundance and of excellent quality, so there is no need to look no further.
Just a trip to the market to bring to the table the best that gives us the season and the best cure for any ailment starts from there. We consume more natural products and not consume more medicines: it seems a good compromise, no?
