This study centers on examining the advantages of incorporating the Mediterranean Diet into food labeling practices, widely recognized for its positive effects on health and longevity among Mediterranean populations. More specifically, it explores the potential of utilizing the Mediterranean Index (Med Index) for this purpose. The Med Index is a strategic tool to guide patrons towards healthier food choices aligned with the Mediterranean Diet, particularly those with cardiovascular concerns. This research conducts a systemic examination of the normative papers of the European Commission and scientific articles sourced from databases including Scopus, WoS and Google Scholar. The objective is to assess the efficacy and potential of the Med Index in fostering improved dietary practices. The primary aim of this labeling approach is to provide customers with knowledge regarding the impact of dietary choices on health. The analysis of the review articles discusses integrating circular economy principles into the Mediterranean diet, citing the BS 8001 standard as a crucial framework. The researchers recommend further research to understand consumer perceptions of the Med Index and its impact on food choices. Collaboration with stakeholders is crucial for successful implementation, and a long-term assessment of the diet's sustainability and environmental impact is needed, while public awareness campaigns and policy recommendations are vital for promoting the Mediterranean diet and the Med Index.

Środki spożywcze specjalnego przeznaczenia żywieniowego ze względu na swoje przeznaczenie obejmują między innymi dietetyczne środki spożywcze specjalnego przeznaczenia medycznego. Osoby cierpiące na choroby układu krążenia niewątpliwie są podstawowymi konsumentami takiego rodzaju żywności. Odpowiednio dobrane środki żywieniowe zwłaszcza dieta śródziemnomorska nie tylko zmniejszają ryzyko choroby niedokrwiennej serca (co potwierdzono w badaniu Seven Countries Study), ale także przyczyniają się do wydłużenia życia starszych mieszkańców krajów śródziemnomorskich. W niniejszej pracy systematyzowano wiedzę na temat nowego systemu znakowania produktów żywnościowych o nazwie Indeks Śródziemnomorski (Med Index) mającego na celu promowanie przestrzegania diety śródziemnomorskiej (zdrowy i zrównoważony sposób odżywiania), który również może być uwzględniany w znakowaniu środków spożywczych specjalnego przeznaczenia medycznego. W pracy przeanalizowane dostępne piśmiennictwo na temat wykorzystania systemu oznakowania znanego w Europie jak Indeks Śródziemnomorski ze szczegółowym uwzględnieniem konsumentów z chorobami układu krążenia. Stosowana w pracy analiza jakościowa dotyczyła dokumentów normatywnych Komisji Europejskiej, artykułów indeksowanych w bazach danych Scopus, WoS, Google Scholar. Zwrócenie uwagi na wartości energetyczne produktów specjalnego przeznaczenia medycznego oraz osobliwości procesu ich wytwarzania w kontekście koncepcji zrównoważonego rozwoju niewątpliwie przyczyni się do rozszerzenia wiedzy konsumenta na temat prozdrowotnych informacji o wpływie produktu na stan zdrowia osoby z problemami kardiologicznymi oraz dostarczy korzystne informacji na temat wpływu procesu produkcyjnego wytwarzania żywności na stan środowiska regionu gdzie powstał ten środek spożywczy.
