EatingWell's Editorial Guidelines

There's a reason the Mediterranean diet consistently ranks as one of the healthiest diets. Research shows that the Mediterranean diet can improve heart health, reduce the risk of some cancers and protect our brains. When paired with a lower-carb diet, the Mediterranean diet may be particularly beneficial in lowering blood sugars for people with diabetes.

Feel free to follow this plan for the full 30 days or choose just a few recipes to try out. We've included recipes that are low in carbs—but not too low that you miss out on important nutrients—to help you meet your health and nutrition goals.

The New Mediterranean Diet

In this healthy low-carb meal plan, we capped the calories at 1,500 calories a day, which is a calorie level most people will lose weight following, and also included modifications for 1,200 and 2,000 calories a day, depending on your calorie needs.

It's important to note that healthy weight loss is gradual weight loss—about 1 to 2 pounds per week. If you're feeling hungry at 1,500 calories, bump it up until you feel satisfied and slowly taper down to fewer calories over the next few months.

Healthy Low-Carb Foods to Focus on for the Mediterranean Diet

  • Fish: Focus on fish rich in healthy omega-3 fatty acids like salmon, sardines and albacore tuna, which are staples of the Mediterranean diet.
  • Lean Proteins: Chicken, turkey and eggs are particularly important in the low-carb version of this diet.
  • Healthy Fats: Olives, avocado, olive oil, nuts and seeds are satisfying and delicious.
  • Vegetables: Vegetables, particularly leafy greens like spinach and kale, should be included in large amounts.
  • Fruits: Although they contain carbohydrates, fruits are a great source of vitamins and fiber and should be included. High-fiber fruits, like berries, apples and pears are particularly important.
  • Whole Grains: Although they're higher in carbohydrates, whole-grain carbs like quinoa, oatmeal and brown rice should still be included in moderation.
