Heart disease is definitely not something to be taken lightly. Taking good care of your health and what you put in your mouth is crucial. That’s the good news! You can prevent heart disease from kicking in, for the most part!
Thanks to MindBodyGreen.com, we know that there’s a diet that has the potential of preventing cardiovascular disease for women over the age of 50.
The Portfolio Diet mostly contains plant-based foods, and according to the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) from the USA, they had been shown to lower bad cholesterol.
Over 123,000 postmenopausal women from the US were analyzed for the new study. They followed the Portfolio Diet. None of them was suffering from cardiovascular disease at the beginning of the study. After some years later, the scientists concluded that those who adhered to the diet had 11% fewer chances to develop cardiovascular diseases. They also were 14% less likely to deal with coronary heart disease, as well as 17% less likely to suffer from heart failure.
The foods in question are:
• Plant protein from green peas, tofu, beans, and soy.
• Monounsaturated fats obtained from avocado and olive oil.
• Nuts, as peanuts, peanut butter, and more.
• Soluble fiber from barley, apples, eggplant, oats, berries, oranges, okra and pears.
• Limited consumption of saturated fats as well as cholesterol, such as pountry, eggs, butter, organ meats, and high-fat dairy products.
Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the US. One person from the country dies every 36 seconds as a result of cardiovascular disease, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The new study was published in the Journal of the American Heart Association.
