The Atlantic diet refers the traditional eating habits of people in northwestern Spain and Portugal, and focuses on unprocessed foods, vegetables and fruits, nuts, whole grains, fish, dairy, eggs, olive oil and some red meat and wine.[1] As both emphasize avoiding processed foods,[1] the Atlantic diet is similar to the Mediterranean diet,[2] but the Atlantic diet involves more fish, milk, potatoes, fruits and vegetables than the Mediterranean diet.[3]

A JAMA study found that six months on the Atlantic diet resulted in a significantly decreased risk of developing metabolic syndrome,[4] which can can include obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, triglyceride or cholesterol levels, and lead to the development of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes.[5][6] A study published in Molecular Psychiatry found that the Atlantic diet, also known as Southern European Atlantic diet (SEAD), lowered depression risk.[7]
