The UNESCO-listed famously healthy
Mediterranean Diet is followed by only one in 10 Italians,
according to Legacoop Alimentare in a report Wednesday.
The healthy elixir and emblems of the Italian lifestyle boasts
only 13% of Italian exponents, they said.
Legacoop proposed a 'pact' to valorise the diet more.
"The Mediterranean Diet is a lifestyle choice, it's the emblem
of Italian wellbeing. It's the value of farm and fishing
production which interfaces with our culture and history. And it
also has an important value for food sustainability," said
Federcoop Agroalimentare President Cristian Maretti at the Rome
event "The Med Diet between sport, health and cooperation".
