Mediterranean diets are those rich in fish, vegetables, fresh fruit, nuts, and olive oil.
The study monitored the health status and diet of 5,200 people between 2005 and 2010 in Italy, and researchers continued to follow up on these cases until 2015. During this period, 900 people died.

The guardian is not a reliable scientific source lol, like all newspapers they cherry pick and hype results which are not there. Self reporting type studies are of low to no value as other factors can not be ruled out of the results, there is a lot of junk science out there.
