Italian cuisine recipesExperts from the UniversityFlorence rated 12 international studies of the effects of dietary preferences on the health of over 1.5 million people. For those people who strictly followed the Mediterranean type of nutrition, the risk of total mortality and death from cardiovascular problems was found 9% lower, 13% from neuro-degenerative disorders, 6% from cancer. Now everyone can learn the secrets of cooking by going to the page of the Internet portal dedicated to Mediterranean cuisine. At www.italianfoodnet.com you can watch video clips around the clock in which chefs reveal the secrets of cooking Italian food. So far it has been recorded here, which is an insignificant part of Italy’s “gastronomic heritage”. To access the "tasty page" you do not need to pay or register, just read in English or Italian. On the same site you can find out where and when various gastronomic holidays take place in Italy. After all, even the smallest Italian town, almost like its saint, “worships” certain dishes considered to be a local tradition: whether it is “bruschetta” - plain toasted bread with olive oil, garlic and salt - or mind-blowing desserts. And all this without harm for health, because the Mediterranean diet, rich in olive oil, whole grains, fruits, nuts, vegetables and fish, but limited in meat, dairy products and alcohol, is a standard of healthy food and an indicator of high quality of life no.
