The future of diet: what will we be eating in The future?

Food habits and preferences of our population are continuously changing throughout the world, especially in the wealthier countries. One of the consequences in our environment is the abandonment of the Mediterranean Diet, in accordance with an increased consumption of processed and ultraprocessed food, with negative effects on our health by the progressive increase of obesity and its multiple metabolic consequences. On the other hand, foods production is one of the most important reasons for the global warming of the planet, triggered by an increased demand of foods, caused by the grow up of the world population and by the introduction of technologies no respectful with the planet. Fortunately, every day the population is more and more awareness of the need for changing the alimentary model and the news technologies, looking for minimizing such deleterious consequence, always thinking in the health of the people and the planet. This concept, looking for a global welfare for the present and for the future, is discussed in this manuscript.
