Do you have High Triglycerides, High Blood Pressure, and/or High Cholesterol in addition to Prediabetes?!
“Celebrate a World of Flavors” Month is a great opportunity to explore the Mediterranean style diet option for people with prediabetes!
Why? Because decades of evidence link the Mediterranean style diet with positive outcomes such as:
⬇️ Hemoglobin A1C
⬇️ Blood pressure
⬇️ Triglycerides
⬇️ LDL (“bad” cholesterol)
The Mediterranean Diet was the Best Overall Diet in 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, and 2018, according to U.S. News & World Report.
The Mediterranean style diet is based on the various food traditions from countries that surround the Mediterranean Sea (countries/regions in Africa, Asia, and Europe). But you can still enjoy it with delicious, fresh, affordable foods from your local supermarket.
This week I will share some background on the Mediterranean style diet and a few practical tools you can use to experiment with this diet approach to manage prediabetes.
And don’t worry, if you are thinking, “well, how does the Mediterranean diet fit in with my low carbohydrate diet?!”, I’ve got you covered! Stay tuned…💁🏻♀️
