Greeks Are Now Overweight

Greetings!

I was reading in the news today that there is a high level of obesity amongst the Greek population in Greece, especially amongst the youngsters.

The news caught my attention because Mediterranean cultures have been famous for having almost miraculous diets for a long time.

Indeed, there are even books and websites promoting Mediterranean diets as a way to keep trim and fit.

But the latest studies on the subject reveal that Greek youngsters are turning their heads away from the traditional foods their forefathers used to eat. They're turning to the Western delicacies, and adding to their BMI and cloging their arteries with trans fat.

For us, who are in the West already, we should do the opposite.

Whilst multinational food outlets are trying to change their menus, such changes are more cosmetic than substantial. The Mc's new choices, for instance, can be often as fattening as a Big Mack.

So, avoid stuffing your face with their new meals just because they say they're healthy.




Yours in Health,
