Healthy Mediterranean Diet

by Brick ONeil

It appears that eating a Mediterranean Diet has more health benefits than lower cholesterol and lower fat.

The article shows health benefits for kids. Kids who ate more local fresh fruit head fewer bouts with sniffles, colds and allergies.

One way to get kids to eat fresh fruits more is to pre-cut them! Also, serve them with a low-fat flavored yogurt or low-fat caramel ice cream topping.

A spoonful of sugar, you know, as the song goes.
