Summary: It has long been recognized that the Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) confers numerous health benefits. It has been particularly promoted among elderly at high cardiovascular risk, so risk factors like cholesterol, blood pressure, symptoms of the metabolic syndrome are reduced and the risk for stroke and heart attack and mortality are lowered. Recently published articles underlined the suitability of the MedDiet for younger people, too: Children at primary school age can be affected by emotional stress leading to unhealthy eating habits like undereating or overeating. In a cross-sectional study Alessandra Buja et al. found an association between the adherence to the MedDiet and emotional eating disorders. High adherence lowered the risk of under-or overeating and therefore could be included in preventive measures targeted at lowering eating disorders among children. In a study among Greek adolescents, high adherence to the MedDiet resulted in higher health-related quality of life. The study assessed the relation in adolescents aged 12-18 years during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the many sacrifices in social life during this time, diet quality proved to be a pillar of well-being and could partially mitigate the negative impact of isolation during this time. Knowing about the difficulty to lose weight, public health recommendation emphasizes the need to avoid weight gain in the first place. A changing metabolism, sedentary behaviour and poor diet quality happen to many students at university age. A recent study, implied a strong effectiveness to prevent weight gain by high adherence to the MedDiet. The study among Greek students can be an orientation for future policy making and guidance for healthcare professionals, raising awareness of the importance of the MedDiet even before cardiovascular diseases have broken out. These three new publications give credit to the idea of invigorating a healthful dietary pattern, such as the MedDiet, among children, adolescents and young adults independent of their acute cardiometabolic risk.
