Medieval diet much healthier than a modern western diet

Categories: Diet & Weight Loss

If you're looking to find a diet for that New Year's resolution, which ones are you considering? There is a plethora of them, some of which will grow stale over time (and cause you to get off track), while others will be enjoyable and will make the transition to a healthier nutrition lifestyle much easier.

The 'Medieval' diet, which is comprised of fish, fruit, whole grains and olive oil (and red wine) sounds like a limited menu as it is.

Well, it may be -- but forming the basis of a diet around those items is never a bad idea. Want a start? Begin phasing out butter in all those meal preps and sub in olive oil -- I've found it words almost anywhere butter would. We don't have to work laborious, 12-hours days like those in Medieval times did, but we can eat like it.
