Eur J Clin Nutr. 1993 Sep:47 Suppl 1:S76-81.

Abstract

Data from several studies are presented which suggest that the traditional Greek diet still exists in several parts of Greece and several segments of the population. The most profound changes in dietary intakes in recent years concern the increase in the consumption of meat and the decrease in the consumption of pulses.
