The Mediterranean Diet

The Mediterranean Foods Alliance (MFA) is a coalition of health professionals, scientists, chefs, and food companies who have joined together to educate consumers about healthy traditional Mediterranean food, drinks and products.

The Mediterranean Diet has long been considered the “gold standard” of eating patterns. Extensive nutrition science research confirms that the Mediterranean diet consumption pattern promotes good health and longevity.
