State the similarities and differences between the Mediterranean diet and the Atlantic diet.​

It is said that is the basis of the cuisine in Mediterranean countries, but Portugal follows the Atlantic Diet (as we are near Atlantic Ocean). But what’s the difference between the two? And what is the healthiest?

Nutritionists do not get tired of praising the benefits of the Mediterranean Diet, either by the use of olive oil as a healthy fat, by eating fruits and vegetables, regular intake of water and regular exercise.

The Atlantic Diet shares all these teachings, but gives priority to certain types of foods and consumption of a larger amount of protein, either red meat, eggs, dairy products or vegetables. The consumption of fish and shellfish (always fresh) is also of extreme importance, as well as cereals and potatoes.

It is especially suitable diet for preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases because it is rich in healthy fats and antioxidants.
