Overview: Prevention, the magic word! To cure a disease there is only medicine but, it has now been proven, a healthy diet can help to prevent it. So lots of fibre, legumes, vegetables, fruit, little meat, especially red meat, good olive oil. What does all this remind us of? Our good old Mediterranean diet, which can protect us from the main chronic and inflammatory diseases. If, at the end of a meal, we also eat a piece of chocolate... even better!
