This Mediterranean Diet Pyramid Poster beautifully and invitingly depicts the healthy foods and drinks of the Mediterranean diet. 

In 1993 Oldways created the Mediterranean Diet Pyramid – in partnership with the Harvard School of Public Health and the World Health Organization (WHO) – as a healthier alternative to the USDA’s original food pyramid. Today, the Mediterranean Diet is more popular than ever, with new research every month documenting its benefits, and chefs and home cooks alike embracing Mediterranean ingredients and flavors.

The Mediterranean Diet Pyramid includes:

• Core foods to enjoy every day: whole grains, fruits, vegetables, beans, herbs, spices, nuts and healthy fats such as olive oil.
• Twice weekly servings of fish and seafood.
• Moderate portions of dairy foods, eggs, and occasional poultry.
• Infrequent servings of red meats and sweets.
• An emphasis on the importance of physical activity and enjoying healthy meals with friends and family.

The Mediterranean Diet Pyramid color poster is 24" x 36" in size, and printed on glossy poster stock. Illustrated by George Middleton.

The Pyramid is also available as magnets, cards, and tear-pads for inspiration and reminders of the best foods to select for good health.
