ABSTRACT
The observation of statistical public health data, together with lifestyle in a still native population following a strict Mediterranean diet, where local wine consumption of approximately 350 ml daily still has a primary role, demonstrates that this area, Pantelleria, also called the Black Pearl, has better regulation of common intestinal motor disorders. The incidence of chronic bacterial urinary infection is 30% lower than the national average. Further open laboratory studies should be performed to confirm our data and to elucidate whether protection against chronic bacterial urinary infection is congenital or acquired.
