And it’s all good news…<\/p>\n

The “Med” Diet reduces risk of stroke and heart attack, and Type 2 diabetes.<\/p>\n

Celebrate the Med Diet!<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. For a healthy, tasty treat – It’s Greek to Me Dip recipe<\/a><\/p>\n

2. Focus on fruits & vegetables (2+ cups veggies\/day, and at least 1 fruit)<\/p>\n

3. Load up on legumes and beans<\/p>\n

4. Eat fish twice a week or more (baked, broiled, or grilled)<\/p>\n

5. Emphasize Extra-Virgin Olive Oil -Drizzle & dip it, use in cooking (not baking).<\/p>\n

6. Grab a handful of unsalted or lightly-salted nuts every day. Sprinkle in Greek yogurt, on salads, in brown rice\/vegetable dishes, or as an afternoon snack. Don’t go nuts – a small handful will do!<\/p>\n
