Previous research has already proved beneficial Mediterranean diet effect on the state of the brain, bones, as well as in prevention of diabetes risk. Another work of Italian experts revealed Another positive factor of this type of food. It turned out that Mediterranean diet reduces the blood components responsible for inflammation.
Based on the use of large amounts of greens, fish, whole grains, nuts, olive oil diet reduces concentration of platelets and leukocytes in the blood, - it is, in turn, reduces risk of inflammation in the body.

High level as leukocytes, mostly seen in young people (smokers), except of people with high blood glucose levels and higher mass index body.
High concentration of white blood cells in the blood speaks of reinforced Measures of protection against infections that the body takes if a lot of them - consequently, the level of health-threatening inflammation too high. Increasing platelet indicates an increased risk of blood clots. Compliance Mediterranean diet, the study, helped to reduce the rate of platelet leukocytes, which subsequently led to a reduction of inflammation in the body. (READ MORE)
