The Mediterranean diet has been the gold standard dietary pattern for decades, and with good reason: it has been linked with lowered risks of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer's. But scientific research has found that animal products--including seafood, poultry, eggs, and dairy (which are all a part of the traditional Mediterranean diet)--are associated with excess weight, chronic disease, and ecological degradation.
Now, registered dietitian and plant-based expert Julieanna Hever transforms the Mediterranean diet into the "Vegiterranean" diet with whole-plant foods that more effectively promote long-term health and weight management than the common Mediterranean meal plan. With Vegiterranean meal basics, nutritional concerns, flexible menus, and more than forty easy, delicious recipes, you'll reap the benefits of the most researched and beloved diet--made even healthier.
