Q. So I attended a class that talk about a study. Subjects that was strictly on a Mediterranean diet was given fruits, nuts, fish, small amounts of red meat, veggies, spices, herbs, olives, and was given a liter of olive oil per week. The other subjects just continued their regular diet. Subjects that was on a Mediterranean diet was found to be healthier, leaner, and reduced their cardiovascular risk by 30%.
What the study didn't mention was whether the subjects actually used a liter of olive oil per week. The liter was given to one subject. Not one family. That seems like a lot. I know olive oil is healthy for you. But doesn't a liter a week seem a lot to you?

A. A liter/wk sounds impossible.
total fat intake is fine @ 4 tablespoons daily, maybe 2 w/ breakfast; 2 w/ dinner.
Oil/fat is very hi cal, 9 cals per gram, carbs & protein are 4; alcohol 7.

How can the mediterranean diet be good for people with bad hearts allows cheese?
Q. i always thought cheese or any type of sold/fats was one of the worse things for hearts.
A. Too much cheese is bad for the heart, but the Mediterranean diet isn't just cheese.
There is a lot of garlic, vinegar, olive oil, red wine, tomatoes, lean meats and fish which are all conducive to a healthy heart.
Also, the Mediterranean diet is generally free of the growth hormones so common in Western meats that are passed on to the consumer and are, in great part, causing the epidemic of obesity in America and Europe.
