A health expert wowed RTE's Brendan O'Connor on his radio show on Saturday after he pinpointed the diet that can drastically improve your health.Speaking on the show, Dr Rowe said: "If you look at the science, and I'm a scientist, that's an eating plan or diet, as you said, that has the most science behind it.
"The Mediterranean approach to eating reduces your risk of heart attack by 30 per cent, reduces your risk of stroke, diabetes, dementia and lengthens your telomeres which leads to better biological ageing." Explaining to Brendan how people can incorporate the diet into their lifestyle, Dr Rowe said: "What I try encourage people to do is to be better to yourself."
