Eating patterns that align with the Mediterranean diet or the dietary approaches to stop hypertension (DASH) diet could help lower cardiovasculardisease risk in adults with type 1 diabetes, according to results from a six-year study.
It may come as no surprise that the practice of medicine often goes beyond prescriptions and test results, often integrating diet and lifestyle patterns as effective mechanisms to promote heart health. When we move from one diet to another, we must think about reducing and replacing foods with better choices.
Conclusions:Adherence to an unhealthy plant-based diet is associated with a higher CVD risk in people with prediabetes or diabetes, which may be partially attributed to low consumption of whole grains, high intake of SSB, and high blood cystatin C level. 39.1%) and diabetes (32.8%, 95% CI=11.5%–64.6%) 64.6%) (Table 2).Conclusions:Adherence
Cardiovasculardisease remains a leading cause of death worldwide, and managing it effectively requires more than just medical intervention: what you eat plays a crucial role in your heart's health.
(MedPage Today) -- Do people with a family history of cardiovasculardisease have a particular need to consume more eicosapentaenoic/docosahexaenoic acids? Circulation) A healthy vegan diet held a cardiometabolic advantage over omnivorous eating.
Introduction Totum-070 is a combination of five plant extracts enriched in polyphenols to target hypercholesterolemia, one of the main risk factors for cardiovasculardiseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Totum-070 on cholesterol levels in an animal model of diet-induced hypercholesterolemia.
A projected rise in heart disease and stroke – along with several key risk factors, including high blood pressure and obesity – is likely to triple related costs to $1.8 population could be affected by cardiovasculardisease within the next 30 years, according to two new science reports. This includes a doubling of stroke rates.

This is not to say that you can just go to town on sauces, condiments and savoury snacks, but it should give you some reassurance that occasional consumption in an energy-balanced diet is unlikely to be harmful. But for other processed foods, I think they are probably fine when consumed infrequently as part of an energy balanced diet.
