Sharp Declines in Heart Disease in Women Decreases Attributed to Improved Diets, Quitting Smoking, and Other Lifestyle Changes Researchers at HSPH and Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) found a 31 percent decline in coronary heart disease (CHD) in a group of nearly 86,000 women followed over 14 years. A thorough analysis of the group's diet, lifestyle, and medical history indicated that most of this improvement is due to improving diets, quitting smoking, and using postmenopausal hormones. During the course of the study, participants' consumption of red meat dropped by nearly 40 percent, intake of trans fats dropped by more than 30 percent, and use of high-fat dairy products decreased by more than 40 percent. These changes were complemented by increases in consumption of cereal fiber, folic acid, and fish. Simultaneously, the smoking rate declined by 41 percent and the proportion of postmenopausal women using hormone therapy increased almost two-fold. However, these gains achieved through healthy behaviors were somewhat offset by gains in weight: the number of overweight participants increased by 38 percent.

Many of the popular books which support this position are gimmicky, and often, lack adequate scientific referencing. Yet, at their core is very important concept limiting the intake of carbohydrates, (especially as cereal grains and starches), will improve human health. Some critics claim that reduced carbohydrate diets are a fashion trend. Well, this so called trend actually dates back some time. Anthropological study of early hominids has concluded that they lived as hunters-gathers. While nuts, seeds, vegetation and fruit made up an important part of the hunter- gather's diet, his mainstay was hunted or scavenged animal prey. More recent evaluations of early man's nutritional patterns by Dr. Loren Cordain, estimate that as much as 65 percent of his calories were derived from animal products. Granted, early man was not eating corn fed Angus beef from Jewel, but he was eating the meat, the organs and the bones of his prey. Essentially, a high protein/fat diet. It was a mere 10,000 years ago (or less) that man began exploiting an agricultural niche.

The Link Between Cholesterol and Heart Disease Did the blood tests recommended by your doctor show that you have high cholesterol or triglyceride levels? Do you have poor diet and exercise habits that have resulted in weight gain? If so, you may be at risk for heart disease. What do you do? You should develop a healthy lifestyle that includes appropriate weight loss and changes in diet and exercise. This is especially true for heart patients. For those with existing high levels, medications may be an important complement to both diet and exercise in helping to lower and maintain your cholesterol levels. (Remember to talk with your doctor before implementing an exercise program or making drastic changes to your diet.) What Are Cholesterol and Triglycerides? Cholesterol is essential to the manufacture of vitamin D, certain hormones, and the production of cell membranes. It is found in foods of animal origin such as meat, dairy products and eggs. top Triglycerides are stored in fat cells and later released from fatty tissues when the body needs energy between meals. Both are lipids (fats) produced by the liver. Small amounts of these fats are necessary; only when their levels are elevated do they become unhealthy. Good health habits that include a balanced diet, exercise and weight control help maintain healthy levels of these fats. A healthy diet alone does not guarantee low or even normal levels for some individuals.

And in the latest study, researchers suggest the key to losing fat and maintaining muscle can be found in one ingredient in protein-rich animal foods. Since high-protein foods, such as meats, are often loaded in harmful saturated fats, some experts suggest shunning them to reduce both the waistline and heart disease. But in practice, these plans often translate to excess intake of the simple carbohydrates that boost risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes. So the experts continue to try to determine the ideal combination of calories that should come from protein, carbohydrates, and fats for Americans hungry for weight-loss answers.

Information from Your Family Doctor Nutrition and Exercise: Healthy Balance for a Healthy Heart How does what I eat affect my heart? The food you eat can affect the way blood flows through your heart and arteries. A diet high in fat and cholesterol can gradually cause a buildup (called "plaque") in your arteries. That buildup slows down the blood flow and blocks small arteries. If the blockage happens in an artery that carries blood to the heart muscle, the heart muscle can die. That's a heart attack. If the blockage happens in an artery that carries blood to the brain, part of the brain can die. That's a stroke (also called a brain attack). The right diet helps keep your arteries clear and reduces the risk of heart problems and stroke. Keeping your heart healthy by watching what you eat isn't as hard as it sounds! Tips for a heart-healthy diet Eat less fat (especially butter, coconut and palm oil, saturated or hydrogenated vegetable fats such as Crisco, animal fats in meats, fats in dairy products). Use nonstick vegetable oil cooking sprays instead of oils.

What's the Best Diet For Preventing Heart Disease? Source: Tufts University January 17, 2003 At one time, the only dietary strategy people trying to lower their heart disease risk had was to cut back on fat and cholesterol. But recent research has shown that many other dietary factors may influence the development of heart disease. A new study in the Journal of the American Medical Association identifies what may be the most effective dietary strategies for preventing heart disease. Reviewing previous research Researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health reviewed 147 previously published studies that investigated the effects of various dietary factors on heart disease risk, including cholesterol, total fat, omega-3 fatty acids, trans fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids, carbohydrates, glycemic index, fiber, and folate. Some of the studies looked at overall dietary patterns, such as diets in which saturated fat is replaced with unsaturated fat or those that emphasize whole grains over refined grain products. The Harvard researchers evaluated the results of each study for relevance and quality, paying particular attention to different studies that produced either consistent or conflicting results.

But can focusing on foods such as these really pay off? Results from a pair of studies conducted by two groups of Harvard researchers add weight to the evidence that diet does indeed matter. Both studies, recently reported in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, examined the effect of food choices on participants' risk of developing cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death in the United States. To examine the health impact of a high intake of fruits and vegetables, researchers used information on fruit and vegetable consumption obtained from more than 39,000 female health professionals participating in the ongoing Women's Health Study. The researchers divided the women into five groups based on how many servings of fruits and vegetables they ate each day. The occurrence of cardiovascular disease within each intake group was determined by tallying the number of participants who suffered a heart attack or stroke over a five-year period. Results showed that women who consumed anywhere from 4 to 10 or more servings of fruits and vegetables a day had a 20 to 30 % lower risk of cardiovascular disease when compared with those who ate an average 2.5 servings a day.

The 1% Or Less School Kit R This new education kit from CSPI can help school food service personnel, teachers, and health educators motivate school children and their families to choose 1% or fat-free milk. The 1% Or Less School Kit describes how to plan and implement a school-based nutrition education campaign using materials such as fact sheets, classroom activity sheets, peer education groups, and visual displays about the amount of fat in milk. Heart disease may not show up until adulthood, but the beginnings of clogged arteries, an early sign of heart disease, are seen in children as young as 10 years old! The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends that school-age children choose a diet low in total fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol. Almost everyone likes the taste of low-fat milk. In blind taste tests of more than 1900 children and adults, CSPI found that 95% liked the taste of 1% or fat-free (skim) milk. One cup of whole milk has as much artery clogging saturated fat as one hot dog, 5 strips of bacon, a Snickers candy bar, or a fast food hamburger! 2% milk is not low fat. One cup has as much heart-unhealthy fat as 3 strips of bacon. Only 1% and fat-free milk are low fat.

Your Visit to PHI Heart Disease Prevention Publications Classes ... Websites Nutrition Key nutrients (antioxidants) such as vitamins C and E, and folic acid are some of your best defenses against heart disease. How do we incorporate important nutrients into our diet? Start by following the basic food pyramid, because it encourages variety in your diet. And variety is the key to a proper nutrient balance for you! A good rule of thumb: Eat from the fruit and vegetable "color palette" each day and include red, green, orange, and yellow. Don't forget to include whole grains and dried beans as well. Soy Protein Studies continue to show that substituting soy protein for some or all animal proteins can help lower blood cholesterol and reduce risks of heart disease. Cholesterol-Lowering Functional Foods New "designer" fat substitutes developed from natural plant components that help lower blood cholesterol can be found in several spreads and dressings on the market. These products have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and are appropriate to use as part of a balanced diet. Water Drink lots of water to help key nutrients do their job. A diet high in potassium (from bananas, potatoes, other fruits and veggies) is essential for healthy heart muscle contraction; magnesium (from whole grains, nuts, greens) maintains the potassium level in your cells. Keep your sodium intake low and drink plenty of water sweating and most diuretics lower potassium and magnesium, the spark plugs for the heart.

Florida Citrus Personal Wellness Plan Cancer Heart Disease Birth Defects Americans are becoming increasingly aware of the link between nutrition and reducing the risk of disease. While most people know that eating the right foods in the proper amounts is essential for good health, a growing body of evidence suggests that certain foods containing vitamin C, fiber, folate and other vitamins and minerals may be especially beneficial to maintaining personal wellness. Hundreds of studies have been conducted on the nutrients found in citrus fruit , including orange juice, and the role these nutrients play in reducing the risk of such diseases as cancer and heart disease, when part of a low fat diet rich in fruits and vegetables. Florida citrus fruit, which contain essential vitamins and minerals, are an important part of a healthy diet for all men, women and children. In both fresh and juice form, Florida citrus - including oranges, grapefruit and specialty varieties such a temple oranges, tangerines and tangelos - have many important nutritional benefits. Some of these benefits are listed below: An eight-ounce glass of Florida orange juice supplies 100 percent or more of the Daily Value for vitamin C, a valuable "antioxidant". Scientists believe that antioxidants may counteract the harmful molecules called "free radicals," which they believe may contribute to the onset of several major diseases. Vitamin C also helps maintain collagen, the substance that helps the human body repair body tissue.
