“…14 The LIFE (Losartan Intervention For Endpoint reduction in hypertension) study examined whether lower achieved systolic blood pressure (≤130 mm Hg) was associated with a lower incidence of AF, compared to less-adequate control (systolic blood pressure ≥142 mm Hg) in hypertensive patients suffering from left ventricular hypertrophy. 36,37 Patients who achieved optimal systolic blood pressure (≤130 mm Hg) had a 40% lower risk of incident AF compared to those with systolic blood pressure ≥142 mm Hg. 7,36 Another trial by Vermond and colleagues revealed, that the risk of incident AF (HR 1.11) increases with every 10 mm Hg increase in systolic blood pressure.…”

Atrial fibrillation is the most prevalent cardiac arrhythmia in the clinical setting affecting approximately 34 million individuals worldwide. The disease is associated with a significant burden of morbidity and mortality resulting from stroke, heart failure, and acute coronary syndrome. Atrial fibrillation is now a major public health problem with tremendous implications on the economy and the world's healthcare systems. Numerous risk factors and clinical conditions that are associated with the development and progression of atrial fibrillation have been identified in the past. Within the last decades, a shift in awareness toward modifiable conditions has been observed and risk factor management has gained significant momentum. In light of this, dietary approaches are of paramount importance. Whole‐food plant‐based diets emphasizing grains, legumes, vegetables, fruits and nuts and excluding most (or all) animal products have recently experienced a significantly increased interest. The purpose of this review is to present evidence suggestive of a plant‐based diet being a valuable tool in atrial fibrillation risk factor management. The effects of a plant‐based diet on both established and emerging risk factors, such as inflammation and subclinical atherosclerosis, are reviewed in this article. A special focus is put on cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors including hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, and obesity.

“…It has been previously demonstrated that adherence to a plant-based diet reduces the likelihood of primary AF risk factors, including hypertension, obesity, diabetes, and coronary heart disease [ 36 – 41 ]. Blood pressure is reduced due to improved vasodilation and increased potassium intake [ 36 , 42 , 43 ]. Improvements in blood glucose control are thought to be due to the lower content of advanced glycation endproducts [ 44 ].…”

Associations of dietary patterns with risk of incident atrial fibrillation in the REasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS)

Background We examined whether the risk of incident atrial fibrillation (AF) in a large, biracial, prospective cohort is lower in participants who adhere to heart-healthy dietary patterns and higher in participants who adhere to less heart-healthy diets. Methods Between 2003 and 2007, the REasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) cohort study enrolled 30,239 Black and White Americans aged 45 years or older. Dietary patterns (convenience, plant-based, sweets, Southern, and alcohol and salads) and the Mediterranean diet score (MDS) were derived based on food frequency questionnaire data. The primary outcome was incident AF at the follow-up visit 2013–2016, defined by either electrocardiogram or self-reported medical history of a physician diagnosis. Results This study included 8977 participants (mean age 63 ± 8.3 years; 56% women; 30% Black) free of AF at baseline who completed the follow-up exam an average of 9.4 years later. A total of 782 incident AF cases were detected. In multivariable logistic regression analyses, neither the MDS score (odds ratio (OR) per SD increment = 1.03; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.95–1.11) or the plant-based dietary pattern (OR per SD increment = 1.03; 95% CI 0.94–1.12) were associated with AF risk. Additionally, an increased AF risk was not associated with any of the less-healthy dietary patterns. Conclusions While specific dietary patterns have been associated with AF risk factors, our findings fail to show an association between diet patterns and AF development.
