Introduction<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Last week we looked at The Atlantic Diet. We noted that so many countries border the Atlantic Ocean, there can be no \u2018Atlantic Diet\u2019. A \u201cSouthern European Atlantic Diet\u201d appears to have been first reported in academic literature in July 2010 (Ref 1). That paper described the Southern European Atlantic Diet (SEAD) as the traditional diet of Northern Portugal and Galicia, a region in northwest Spain.<\/p>\n

The GALIAT trial was registered in March 2015. GALIAT is an abbreviation for Galicia Alimentaci\u00f3n Atl\u00e1ntica (Galicia Atlantic Diet). The Atlantic Diet would more accurately be called the GALIAT diet or the SEAD. It\u2019s (allegedly) the diet of the Northern Portugal and Galicia region. The article about the GALIAT trial protocol is here (2016) (Ref 2).<\/p>\n

The Atlantic Diet paper that we looked at last week was published by a team of researchers from Spain (Ref 3). That\u2019s the home of the main trial involving The Mediterranean Diet, which was called PREDIMED (Prevenci\u00f3n con Dieta Mediterr\u00e1nea \u2013 prevention with a Mediterranean Diet). Let\u2019s call them the GALIAT diet and the MedDiet from now on. Are these fundamentally different diets? Is one healthier than the other? Let\u2019s take a look\u2026<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
