Mediterranean Diet Named World's Best for 2022
地中海飲食被評為2022年全球最佳飲食法

US News & World Report has named the Mediterranean diet as the world's best diet for 2022.

For 12 years, US News & World Report has ranked the world's best diets. For 2022, it asked 27 experts to rank 40 diets on how easy they are to follow, how safe they are, whether they will help you lose weight, whether they help decrease the risk of diabetes and heart disease, and how healthy they are.

The Mediterranean diet is the type of cooking enjoyed by people who live in countries on the Mediterranean Sea, such as Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Spain or Morocco. While there is no single Mediterranean diet, the diets of these countries do share some things that make them good for you.

Mediterranean cooking is simple and has lots of fruits and vegetables, grains, beans, seeds and nuts. Instead of butter it uses olive oil, which research has found to be better for your heart. The Mediterranean diet also uses lots of fish and not very much red meat, which studies have found may cause heart disease.

This is the fifth year in a row that the Mediterranean diet has been named the world's best.

地中海飲食法已連續五年蟬聯世界冠軍。地中海飲食法是住在賽普勒斯、希臘、義大利、西班牙或摩洛哥等地中海國家的民眾，所喜愛的烹飪類型。 雖然並沒有單一種地中海飲食法，但這些國家的飲食法確實擁有對大眾有益的共通點。地中海烹調方式很簡單，有大量蔬果、穀物、豆類、種子和堅果；用橄欖油，不用奶油；使用大量魚類，沒有太多紅肉。
