  • Title: The power of a balanced diet and lifestyle in preventing cardiovascular disease.
    Author: Herder R, Demmig-Adams B.
    Journal: Nutr Clin Care; 2004; 7(2):46-55. PubMed ID: 15481738.
    Abstract:
    We examine the physiologic changes involved in the onset of cardiovascular disease (CVD) as well as multiple dietary and lifestyle factors that either promote or prevent CVD. Dietary fats (saturated, monounsaturated, n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated, and trans fats), antioxidants, and carbohydrates, as well as alcohol consumption, exercise, smoking, and infections, are evaluated. Epidemiologic studies and clinical trials are discussed in light of the underlying mechanisms.
