Are you looking to increase your athletic performance? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young medical minute. New research out of Saint Louis University (SLU) in Missouri found that eating a Mediterranean diet can increase endurance performance in just four days! Participants on the diet saw a six percent increase in speed while running on a treadmill for three miles after only four days. The Mediterranean diet consists of plant-based foods. These include fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, and legumes. Red meats are limited to just a few times a month and replaced with poultry and fish. Olive oil is used in place of butter and fresh herbs and spices in place of salt. Talk to your doctor if you have concerns about your diet and exercise.
