“…In our previous study, the consumption of vegetables, fruits, and other vegetables was correlated with less CV risk factors. 34 Other studies demonstrated a greater variety in the diet of vegetarians, with the consumption of different plant foods, such as fruits and vegetables that have a high amount of antioxidants and compound bioactives, which may result in a beneficial health effect, since its antioxidant potential can help lower oxidation in plasma lipoproteins and lower occurrence of vascular injury. 35 Tande et al (2004) 36 observed, in a sample of 9,111 US adults, a positive association between meat and dairy intakes with increased LDL-c, whereas grain and fruit groups were associated with decreased TC and better HDL-c.…”

Background:The lower frequency of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors observed in vegetarians compared to omnivores may be due to more appropriate nutrient intake according to recommendations for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.Objective: To compare the dietary adequacy according to the recommendations of the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) in apparently healthy vegetarian (VEG) and omnivorous (OMN) men.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study, conducted with apparently healthy men (44 omnivorous and 44 vegetarians, ≥ 35 years), who were assessed for daily food consumption, anthropometric data, physical exercise status, and clinical data. Multiple logistic regression was used to test the association between the type of diet and the dietary adequacy. Significant values were considered for p<0.05.Results: Several clinical CV risk markers were significantly lower in VEG when compared to OMN: body mass index (BMI) (23.1 vs. 27.3 kg/m2), systolic blood pressure (119.5 vs. 129.2 mmHg), and diastolic blood pressure (75.7 vs. 83.9 mmHg). VEG presented significant lower values of blood lipids and glucose. No significant difference was observed in caloric intake; however, VEG consumed significantly more carbohydrates, dietary fibers, and polyunsaturated fats. VEG presented an adequate consumption of dietary cholesterol and saturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, regardless of caloric intake and age. Conclusion:VEG were more likely to consume saturated fatty acids, dietary cholesterol, and fibers according to the recommendations of NCEP, factors that may contribute to lower levels of CV risk markers than OMN.

“…Several types of fatty acids and their intake also have different effects on lipid metabolism [28,29]. Moreover, according to Acosta-Navarro et al [30], higher consumption of an animal-based diet leads to higher TC levels. Hence, animal-based LCD scores were associated with differences in TC levels according to gender in this study.…”

Association between Three Low-Carbohydrate Diet Scores and Lipid Metabolism among Chinese Adults

This study investigated the blood lipid levels of 5921 Chinese adults aged >18 years using data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey 2009. Diet information was collected through 3 day, 24 h recalls by trained professionals. The low-carbohydrate diet (LCD) score was determined according to the percentage of energy obtained from carbohydrate, protein, and fat consumption. Dyslipidemia was defined when one or more of the following abnormal lipid levels were observed: high cholesterol levels, high triglyceride levels, and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Multivariate adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated using logistic regression models. After adjusting the confounding variables, in males, the OR of hypercholesterolemia was 1.87 (95% CI, 1.23–2.85; p for trend = 0.0017) and the OR of hypertriglyceridemia was 1.47 (95% CI, 1.04–2.06; p for trend = 0.0336), on comparing the highest and lowest quartiles of the LCD score. The animal-based LCD score showed a similar trend. The OR of hypercholesterolemia was 2.15 (95% CI, 1.41–3.29; p for trend = 0.0006) and the OR of hypertriglyceridemia was 1.51 (95% CI, 1.09–2.10; p for trend = 0.0156). However, there was no significant difference between plant-based LCD scores and dyslipidemia. In females, lipid profiles did not differ much among the quartiles of LCD scores—only the animal-based LCD score was statistically significant with hypercholesterolemia. The OR of hypercholesterolemia was 1.64 (95% CI, 1.06–2.55), on comparing the highest and lowest quartiles of the LCD score. In conclusion, a higher LCD score, indicating lower carbohydrate intake and higher fat intake, especially animal-based fat, was significantly associated with higher odds of hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia in Chinese males. Future studies investigating the potential mechanisms by which macronutrient types and sex hormones affect lipid metabolism are required.

“…They were evaluated by researchers, 23 the frequency of food consumption and its association with cardiovascular risk factors and biomarkers of subclinical atherosclerosis (p.43), showing that individuals who consume vegetables more times in the week had lower triglyceride values, glyc-Hb, lower TC/ HDL, DBP, while those who ingest more green leaves have lower values in the TG/HDL ratio, triglycerides, glycemia, glyc-Hb and HDL cholesterol. It is provided, by the higher consumption in the week of legumes, lower ratio of TC/ HDL and LDL, while the higher consumption in the week of oilseeds showed lower score in arterial pressures, TC, ratio TC/ HDL, LDL, TG, Glyc-Hb, IMT, while frequent consumption of "animal foods, sweets, fats and ultra-processed foods, with a greater association with cardiovascular risk factors" with higher TC / HDL, TG, ApoB and HDL, TG, GL, CRP and higher TC / ratio Highest HDL, LDL, TG, GL, Apo B, CRP and IMT.…”

Objetivo: avaliar os marcadores subclínicos de doenças cardiovasculares e os hábitos alimentares em mulheres no período do climatério. Método: trata-se de um estudo quantitativo, descritivo, transversal que avaliou o estado nutricional, exames bioquímicos, espessura da camada íntima média da artéria carótida e os hábitos alimentares de 20 mulheres. Incluíram-se no estudo aquelas que apresentaram espessamento da camada arterial. Analisaram-se os dados no software SPSS versão 18.0. Resultados: observaram-se estado de sobrepeso e risco muito elevado para o desenvolvimento de doenças cardiovasculares pelo perímetro da cintura. Verificaram-se alterações no colesterol LDL e colesterol total. Conclusão: trata-se de uma população com múltiplos riscos cardiovasculares. Sugere-se que a avaliação integral do estado de saúde de mulheres nesse período seja realizada. Descritores: Climatério; Estado Nutricional; Comportamento Alimentar; Doenças das Artérias Carótida; Riscos Cardiovasculares.
