Why the Mediterranean Diet for Inflammation?

The Mediterranean Diet is one of the most researched anti-inflammatory eating patterns in the world. It’s rich in:

• Colorful fruits and vegetables

  
  

• Omega-3 rich fish and healthy fats like extra virgin olive oil

  
  

• Lean proteins like poultry, legumes, and seafood

  
  

• Whole grains and fiber-rich carbs

  
  

• Fermented and probiotic foods like yogurt, kefir, and pickled veggies

Studies have shown this way of eating may help reduce chronic inflammation, support heart and brain health, and improve metabolic markers like blood sugar and cholesterol.
