Sažetak
Recent meta analysis shows that adherence to a mediterranean diet can significantly decrease the risk of overall mortality, mortality from cardiovascular diseases, as well as incidence of moratlity from cancer and incidence of Parkinson s and Alzheimers diseases. All of these diseases could be linked to axidative stress as antioxidative effect of MD is getting more attention nowaday. Although a lot of research has been done in this area and it suggests antioxidative protective role of MD, the presented evidence is still inconclusive. The aim of this paper is to review studies investigating the effect of MD on OS , as well as to identify the areas for further research
