The Middle East consists of Islamic countries like Turkey, Afghanistan, UAE, Qatar, etc. These nations have a meat based diet, mainly of chicken, mutton and beef. But there are also healthy foods like hummus, which is basically chickpea paste, and mint tea.

Tofu, as we all know is a staple of dieters and has become popular mainly for its usage in Chinese dishes. The takeout restaurants that have sprung up all over the world serve unhealthy Chinese food by mixing too many oils, sauces and flour and this makes people shun food from this nation. However, traditional Chinese food is in fact very nutritious such as chicken or tofu and steamed vegetables with brown rice, steamed chicken, shrimp dumplings, egg drop soup, etc.

It’s true that following a diet mainly consisting of sea food and plants in an almost raw form is any day healthier than eating meats of chicken, cow, sheep, goat or pig. Mediterranean dishes generally consist of fresh green leafy vegetables and seafood in salad form, topped with feta cheese. Other dishes such as lentil soup, grilled fish or shellfish, yogurt and garlic, mashed eggplant, fish roe, tomato salad, grilled sardines, etc., are also almost wholly fat-free.
