7.      The Mediterranean Diet

This diet deemphasizes the use of too much red meat with a greater emphasis on the consumption of grains and legumes instead. The diet is generous with the consumption of all kinds of vegetables, with most of the cooking done in olive oil.

Instead of meat, you can opt for sea food varieties. The diet also allows the liberal use of dairy products and encourages using fruits as the dessert potion of your meal.
