The Mediterranean Diet has been lauded because of its positive effects on the prevention of coronary heart disease and cancer. Does the Mediterranean Diet of today have any relationship to the ancient diet in this region? What was the Mediterranean Diet in antiquity and was it actually healthy? Was everybody living in the ancient Mediterranean world really slim and trim? This article provides some answers to these questions as well as important insights into the development of a way of life in antiquity that persists in the region to this day
