Mediterranean diet 地中海饮食

It is never too late to start eating a Mediterranean diet, as a study shows it could stop the brains of people in their seventies from shrinking. 

开始吃地中海饮食永远都不会太晚。研究显示，地中海饮食可以阻止70多岁的老人脑萎缩。

The Mediterranean diet is a modern nutritional recommendation originally inspired by the dietary patterns of Greece, Southern Italy, and Spain in the 1940s and 1950s. 

地中海饮食是受上世纪40到50年代的希腊、意大利南部、和西班牙饮食方式启发而成的现代营养建议。

The principal aspects of this diet include proportionally high consumption of olive oil, legumes, unrefined cereals, fruits, and vegetables, moderate to high consumption of fish, moderate consumption of dairy products (mostly as cheese and yogurt), moderate wine consumption, and low consumption of non-fish meat products. 

地中海饮食主要包括高比例的橄榄油、豆类、未加工谷物、水果和蔬菜、适量到高比例的鱼类、适量奶制品（主要是奶酪和酸奶）、适量红酒、以及少量非鱼类肉食。

Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables, olive oil, and even a glass of wine a day, may protect the grey matter which declines as we age. 

吃大量的水果和蔬菜，食用橄榄油，甚至每天喝一杯红酒，可以保护随着我们的衰老而衰退的脑灰质。
