- Summary:
- How can food be used as preventative medicine? At Harvard University, Dr. Walter Willet has been tracking the diets of 300,000 people for 40 years. “We found that what you eat is incredibly important and that the Mediterranean Diet lowers the risk of heart disease, cancer, cognitive dysfunction, diabetes, obesity, infertility and even improves sexual function,” explains Willet. “In fact, there is growing evidence that the Mediterranean diet influences our bodies in many ways by reducing lipid levels, protecting against oxidative and inflammatory processes of cells and modifying hormones connected with cancer”.
