Sažetak
Food and food practices are deeply immersed in a complex world of discourses, material and symbolic relations, networks of un/written norms and rules, systems of meaning, taboos, customs, social distinctions, policies, globalization processes and so forth. Food policy and dietary guidelines are an area of disciplining and regulating behavior of the population (Falbe & Nestle, 2009). The Mediterranean diet plays an important role as the normative dietary model. From a biomedical viewpoint, the Mediterranean diet is one of the healthiest diets. From the standpoint of the social sciences and humanities, the idea and the concept of the “Mediterranean diet” are problematic in many ways. In recent decades, the discourse of healthy eating has begun to partially overlap with the discourse of active- successful-healthy aging, where healthy eating and aging need to be considered contextually and intersectionally, in more critical and reflexive categories (Katz, 2013).
