Mediterranean Diet Score
Conclusion and Your Score
There is no passing or failing grade for this test. The higher your score, the better. A "perfect" Mediterranean style diet would be a score of 9, and if you're living on snack food and soda, it's likely your score will be closer to zero.
Improving your score can have a dramatic impact on your health. One of the largest Mediterranean diet studies showed that a two point increase in your score - from a 5 to a 7 - translates to a 25% reduction in the risk of death from heart disease or cancer.
