Benefits of the Mediterranean Diet in the Elderly Patient

“This is an academic text at its core, I very much enjoyed the inclusion of cultural context. Each chapter included the cultural context of each element of the Mediterranean Diet and how it was incorporated into everyday life. … This book represents a solid reference text for anyone looking to educate themselves on the scientific basis for recommending the Mediterranean Diet and I’ll be keeping it on my bookshelf.” (Nordicum-Mediterraneum, Vol. 15 (1), 2020)

“This book provides an in-depth analysis of the benefits of following a Mediterranean diet, and how the diet would play a role in aging and the management and/or prevention of diseases associated in those of older age. The book uses many diagrams to describe the physiology of various nutritive and non-nutritive components of the Mediterranean diet. … This is a useful title for providers as it has a wealth of evidence-based information onthe potential benefits of following a Mediterranean diet.” (Taylor Durkin, Doody's Book Reviews, April 26, 2019)
