09 | 5 Points to Eating Well With a Mediterranean Diet

Hey Friend!

When you think of Mediterranean foods do you only come up with gyros and souvlaki in your mind?  Does Mediterranean food conjure up a picture of a table with a plate of hummus with pita bread on the side and a backdrop of bright white Greek buildings and a clear blue sky?  While hummus, pita, gyros and souvlaki all are part of the Mediterranean cuisine (Egyptian, Lebanese, Greek, etc), the Mediterranean diet is a broader and a loose guideline based off of the Mediterranean cuisine.

 

In this episode, I will go over the details of what a Mediterranean diet looks like.  If you want clarity on what that looks like and how to implement it in your daily life, this is the episode for you!

The Mediterranean Diet is a flexible, stress-free way of eating well that focuses on quality, variety, and consistency—not counting calories or macros. It emphasizes plant-based foods, healthy fats like olive oil, moderate fish and poultry, minimal red meat, low to moderate dairy, and generous herbs and spices. This mindset supports heart health, stress management, and sustainable time management in the kitchen. With prayer and wisdom, we can shop and cook without fear, trusting God to nourish our families. Simple Mediterranean diet recipes, movement like strength training, and faith all work together for holistic health.
