For the first two years the three groups were not exposed to any physical activities, however after the end of two years the participants were required to submit yearly physical activity reports. The report concluded that the peoples with the Mediterranean dietary had fewer chances of getting the infections. This paper will disagree on the conception that a Mediterranean diet alone is valid for the prevention of the CVD risk (Estruch et al. 2013).
One of the main reasons why the Mediterranean diet cannot be said to be the lone preventive measure for the CVD infections is due to the fact that all people involved in the study came from Spain,which is a Mediterranean country. With this, the results cannot be adequate due to the fact that the participants got the CVD despite the food being their main staple food. One can also be sure that the people...
