The impact of inflation on the Mediterranean diet

The Mediterranean diet is a healthy dietary pattern in which fish consumption is an important key element. In Spain, fish intake is the second highest in Europe. 

Nevertheless, the rising inflation in Spain is affecting Spaniards habits, being more conscious of the spending and looking for cheaper alternatives, according to a recent article of OCU (Spanish Consumer Organization). The increasing cost of fresh seafood, in addition to the commercial campaign of the environmental impact of fishing practices has contributed to this trend. 

Despite the increase in seafood prices (and food in general), many Spanish families continue to prioritize the quality and nutritional value of the products, willing to pay more for healthy food. Although the latest dietary recommendations suggest that diets should be based on vegetables and whole grains, between one and three portions a week of fish are recommended according to AECON.
