We know the sea is not the center of the world, but there are ever more reasons for you to make the dietary habits of the region the center of your diet. You’ve probably heard that the so-called Mediterranean diet helps protect your heart and reduces your risk for cancer, BY MICHAEL obesity and Type 2 diabetes. Well, now research shows that ROIZEN, M.D., & MEHMET OZ, sticking to this diet can protect your brain as well. M.D. A recent study published in Neurology tracked the eating habits of 400 people around age 70 for six years. The research- ers used MRIs for brain scans, and found that the more closely a study partic- ipant followed a Mediterranean diet, the less brain volume he or she lost over a three-year period. Previous research that followed more than 10,000 women revealed that those who followed a Mediterranean-type diet were more like- ly to live past age 70 without physical or mental problems than those who didn’t. So how do you eat Mediterranean? Well, whether you favor Italy, Israel, or Morocco ... --Every meal is based on fruits, vegetables and legumes, with olive oil, nuts and seeds added. --As a side dish, you’ll have fish and lean proteins, like chicken, at least twice a week; red meat’s a rarity. --Use spices instead of salt. --Top it off: Drink red wine in moderation.
