This chapter deals with coronary artery disease (CAD), which is a cause of serious cardiac events including angina and myocardial infarction, which may be fatal or nonfatal. Diets to prevent CAD have been advocated for more than 40 years. Several weight-reduction diets have been fashionable ...
25 In a recent population-based case-control study of 179 cardiac arrest patients and 285 community controls, higher red-cell membrane levels of trans-fatty acids, especially trans-isomers frompartially hydrogenated vegetable oils, were associated with significantly increased risk of primary cardiac ...
15-25 We conducted a 1-year randomized trial of the dietary component of the Atkins, Zone, Weight Watchers, and Ornish plans, aiming to determine their realistic clinical effectiveness and sustainability for weight loss and cardiac risk factor reduction. Of note, this study only evaluated the ...
However, the fatigue and apparent cardiac dysfunction caused by this collagen-based fad diet stood in stark contrast to the published experience of arctic explorers such as Schwatka and Stefansson. In addition, physicians who monitored patients following very low calorie diets observed wide variations ...
a lower long-term risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio (HR) 0.77, 95% CI 0.70–0.84), major cardiac and cerebrovascular events (HR 0.86, 95% CI 0.78–0.94), and infection-related death (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.67–0.87) were observed compared to patients on a different non-...

Also, students with chronic diseases, including diabetes, cardiac, pulmonary, and neurological diseases as well as acute infections, or who received medical therapy or diets that may affect on the data of vitamin D and...
One factor concerns the different study populations: our study was restricted to women aged 20 to 50 years who did not have diabetes and were not taking medications for cardiac risk factors, whereas the population in the study by Dansinger et al was much broader in its inclusion criteria. A...
For example, in the Nurse's Health Study cohort study, low-glycemic index diets were found to be associ- ated with a lower cardiac risk over a 20-year period [43]. A reduced-glycemic index diet without weight loss can also lead to improvement in diabetic control, with enhanced reductions...
