Eating a Mediterranean diet is good
for the mind as well as the body and improves a person's quality of
life, according to researchers.
The
study found that the consumption of oil-rich Mediterranean foods, such
as fish and seafood, helps to improve overall well-being.
For years the region's diet has been associated with superior physical health. But scientists have now linked its consumption to improved mental and physical health too.
A
Mediterranean diet, which is characterised by a regular intake of
fruit, vegetables, pulses, fish, olive oil and nuts, has been proven to
lessen the chances of chronic illness.
Regions where people subside on it also have a lower mortality rate.
