Die mediterrane Ernährung und ihr Einfluss auf die Fruchtbarkeit von Frauen und Männern

Die mediterrane Ernährung ist eine traditionelle Ernährungsweise in den Ländern rund um das Mittelmeer, wie Griechenland, Italien, Spanien und der Türkei. Sie zeichnet sich aus durch den reichlichen Verzehr von wenig verarbeitetem Gemüse, Obst, Vollkornprodukten, Hülsenfrüchten, Nüssen und Olivenöl. Fisch und Geflügel werden bevorzugt gegenüber rotem Fleisch, und der Genuss von Rotwein in Maßen ist ebenfalls Teil dieser Ernährung.
