Use the Mediterranean diet as a starting point:

  • 3 pieces of fruit and 2 servings of vegetables (raw and cooked) every day
  • Avoid all refined carbohydrates (white sugar, white flour) and replace them with whole grains (whole-grain bread, whole-grain pasta, brown rice)
  • Avoid red meat. Replace it with chicken or turkey, or soy-based products (soy burgers, tofu, soy milk).
  • Eat fish once a week (salmon (organic), sardines, halibut, mackerel, and herring).
  • Eat legumes such as beans, lentils, and peas regularly.
  • Eat nuts, seeds, and kernels every day.
  • Choose "healthy" fats (flaxseed oil, olive oil)
  • Drink alcohol and coffee in moderation
  • Limit dairy products, except for yogurt and cottage cheese.
