This was published in the New England Journal of Medicine so I trust this study and the results.

Sure has me rethinking to improve.
For those who are eating the standard American diet, the Mediterranean diet may represent an improvement. In that regard, I'd say it has some value. However, I do see one possible shortcoming. All the participants in the study received counseling. But what about those who now see it advertised on television or read about it? They won't get counseling and I guess I don't have a whole lot of confidence in the average person getting it right.
