There are different dietary patterns around the globe formed on the account of various anthropogenic factors: cultural, economic and globalization. Human food consumption patterns can be formulated and defined depending on habitat. For example, since Scandinavian countries are surrounded by seas, fishery was quite developed historically, and even today, seafood constitutes a large part of daily Scandinavian food plate. On the other hand, world globalization has led to the appearance of such unhealthy food consumption patterns as unbalanced nutrition or refined product excess in a daily diet. There is a strong association between unhealthy eating habits and diseases, which means that healthy eating habits could lower a wide range of such disease emergence possibility as metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. The review discusses types of modern dietary patterns around the globe – their origins, main principles and effects on health, comparison of nutrient ratios among the most popular dietary patterns (Nordic diet, Mediterranean diet, and Okinawa diet) and the “unhealthy” Western diet.
