On an international scale there is much discussion about, and deep interest in, finding the ideal diet, which will improve the health of human beings warding off illnesses. Ever since antiquity, the traditional diet of Cretans seems to be just such a one, including all the right ingredients.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A ilha grega de Creta sempre foi associada \u00e0 cura e \u00e0 regenera\u00e7\u00e3o.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

E, mais uma vez, uma cultura antiga pode oferecer li\u00e7\u00f5es para as pessoas de hoje!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Following scientific research and statistical analyses, the Cretan nutrition and diet has been proven to Promover a sa\u00fade e a longevidade<\/b>. It consists almost exclusively of products that the people of Crete produce naturally. Products that only the island of Crete and its ideal climatic conditions can offer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It is not only the unique in taste and quality Cretan products<\/a> mas tamb\u00e9m a sua combina\u00e7\u00e3o, que confere um enorme valor nutricional e pode ser encontrada em todos os pratos cretenses.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Um estudo comparativo entre v\u00e1rios pa\u00edses desenvolvidos, iniciado em 1960 em nome de sete pa\u00edses, mant\u00e9m um grupo de cerca de 700 homens cretenses da zona rural sob observa\u00e7\u00e3o m\u00e9dica, com verifica\u00e7\u00f5es regulares de seu estado de sa\u00fade: at\u00e9 o momento, esse grupo apresentou a menor porcentagem de mortes causadas por ataques card\u00edacos e diferentes tipos de c\u00e2ncer.<\/p>\n

This study has also shown the Cretan population to be the longest living one: when, in 1991, thirty one years after the beginning of the study, the Social Health Sector<\/a> of the University of Crete<\/a> undertook the medical checkup of the group, about 50% were found to be still alive as opposed to the rest of the six participating countries where there wasn’t a single survivor (even in the rest of Greece)!Until recently the diet was simple and wholesome: olive oil, which counted for the 1\/3 of the individual’s daily need in energy, but mainly cereals, principally bread, pulses, vegetables and fruit and, to a lesser degree, cheese, milk, eggs, fish and a little red wine with every meal.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Taking into account the conditions of today’s life, we would recommend a return to the traditional Cretan eating habits.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
