Having 2 units of item A and 3 units of item B provides - 2 * [10P 20C 30F] + 3 * [20P 30C 20F] = 100P, 130C, 120F. This is the best combination that can reduce the shortfall [20P, 0C, 10F] without exceeding his prescription. In contrast, if 3 units of A and 2 units of B are chosen then 3 * [10P 20C 30F] + 2 * [20P 30C 20F] = 70P, 120C, 130F produces a shortfall of [30P, 10C, 0F]. However, since protein shortfall in this case is more than the previous combination, this is not the right combination to follow.

Substantial evidence supports the effect of the Mediterranean Diet (MD) for managing chronic diseases, although trials have been primarily conducted in Mediterranean populations. The efficacy and feasibility of the Mediterranean dietary pattern for the management of chronic diseases has not been extensively evaluated in non-Mediterranean settings. This paper aims to describe the development of a MD model that complies with principles of the traditional MD applied in a multiethnic context. Optimal macronutrient and food-based composition was defined, and a two-week menu was devised incorporating traditional ingredients with evidence based on improvements in chronic disease management. Strategies were developed for the implementation of the diet model in a multiethnic population. Consistent with the principles of a traditional MD, the MD model was plant-based and high in dietary fat, predominantly monounsaturated fatty acids from extra virgin olive oil. Fruits, vegetables and wholegrains were a mainstay, and moderate amounts of nuts and seeds, fish, dairy and red wine were recommended. The diet encompassed key features of the MD including cuisine, biodiversity and sustainability. The MD model preserved traditional dietary components likely to elicit health benefits for individuals with chronic diseases, even with the adaptation to an Australian multiethnic population.
