The You Docs for Tuesday November 30, 2010

Joyce - Here is your ArcaMax The You Docs Ezine,

Eat Like a Spainard, Wherever You Are

Forget the falling temperatures outside. Imagine relaxing at a cafe in sun-drenched Spain. You sip some red wine, nibble on nuts, then dig into a hearty meal of fish, salad with olive oil, and juicy orange segments. You're not only eating like a local, your blood sugar's singing "Ole!" Keep it up and you could cut your odds for diabetes by a whopping 52 percent. That's exactly what happened when two groups of people followed a traditional Mediterranean diet for four years. Armed with cookbooks, aprons, olive oil misters and a weekly supply of extra-virgin olive oil -- plus, for one group, a package of nuts -- they ate the way we wish everyone did. Lots of fruit. Plenty of veggies, often prepared with olive oil. Mouthwatering sauces made with tomatoes, onion, garlic, spices and more olive oil. Main courses built around fish, chicken, beans or other legumes. They enjoyed a little red wine but cut back on red meat, sugary drinks and sweets. The group that got nuts ate 23 almonds, 15 walnut halves or 50 shelled pistachios daily. Four years later, devotees of either delicious diet (neither low-fat) were half as likely to develop diabetes as a control group on a rigorous low-fat diet. The amazing part? The fabulous foods they ate -- high in healthy, monounsaturated fats and plant foods -- did all the work, keeping their blood sugar low and their bodies sensitive to insulin, meaning resistant to diabetes. It's got us YOU Docs cheering! Or it will (crunch) once we finish snacking (munch) on these nuts! ======== The YOU Docs -- Mike Roizen and Mehmet Oz -- are authors of the best-selling "YOU: The Owner's Manual" and "YOU: On a Diet."
