abstract = {Diet is a modifiable factor in bone and muscle health. The Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) is
rich in nutrients and contains key bioactive components with probable protective effects on muscle
and bone deterioration. Osteoporosis (OP) and sarcopenia are diseases that increase frailty and
susceptibility to fracture, morbidity and mortality. Therefore, it is necessary to combat them in
the population. In this regard, MedDiet adherence has proven to be beneficial to bone mineral
density (BMD), muscle mass, physical function, OP and sarcopenia. Hence, this diet is proposed as a
therapeutic tool that could slow the onset of osteoporosis and sarcopenia. However, there is doubt
about the interaction between the MedDiet, strength and fracture risk. Perhaps the amount of EVOO
(extra virgin olive oil), fruits, vegetables and fish rich in anti-inflammatory and antioxidant nutrients
ingested has an influence, though the results remain controversia},
