The power of the Mediterranean Diet

PREDIMED author Dr. Miguel Ángel Martínez-González discusses the keys of the ”real” Mediterranean Diet and the role of extra virgin olive oil in preventive healthcare with us. Can the Mediterranean Diet help us live longer? What does extra virgen olive oil have to do with cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and breast cancer? What are some of the best and worst things we can eat from a health perspective?We tackle some common myths, such as whether the famous digestif really helps with digestion, that the healthiest diet is low-fat or that you shouldn’t fry with olive oil.In this episode we do something we usually never do - talk about health and diet. The only reason we decided to make this exception is because we got a true expert, an internationally recognized eminence in his field, to share his knowledge with us: Dr. Miguel Ángel Martínez-González is a Professor of Public Health at the University of Navarra, Visiting Professor at Harvard, a cardiologist and one of the leading European researchers in the field of preventative medicine and nutrition. He has led the Predimed trial, the largest study conducted to date on the effects of the Mediterranean diet and health habits, which included over 7,400 participants. Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crowd_farming/ Blog: https://www.crowdfarming.com/blog/en/
