The PREDIMED study was a randomized controlled trial that assigned 7,447 subjects at high risk of cardiovascular disease to one of three diets: a Mediterranean diet supplemented with extra virgin olive oil, a Mediterranean diet supplemented with nuts, or a control low-fat diet. The study found that both Mediterranean diet groups had a 30% reduction in the primary composite endpoint of myocardial infarction, stroke, or cardiovascular death compared to the control diet after a median follow up of 4.8 years. Adherence to a Mediterranean diet was shown to provide cardiovascular benefits for primary prevention.
Few years ago my father, who was CVD patient, passed away due to heart attack. He was only 61. Same thing happened with my mom in law. She was just 57. Then recently some distant relatives were affected by CVD/CAD. Many people are aware of this disease but I feel that they just live with it. Some do take precautions to avoid but may be it is not enough. I decided to learn more about this and learn how one can take precautions. This is a vast subject hence the presentation I put together is just a beginning of scratching the surface. Lot of information is available on the right websites and books. I refer to one such book.
Development and Standardisation of Nutri Bar using Oats, Wheat Bran and Flax ...ijtsrd
Cardiovascular diseases continue to be the major cause of morbidity and mortality in industrialized society. Various studies indicate the consumption of a vegetarian diet or a diet high in cereal fiber appears to be associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases. Based on this, a product was developed which is not only high in fiber, low in saturated fats, high in PUFA and MUFA but also a good source of phytochemicals and antioxidant. The products were developed basic with sugar sample A, variations with jaggery sample B and artificial sweetener sample C using bajra, oats, wheat bran, flax seeds, whole green gram, almonds and walnuts. The nutritive value per 100g of the basic recipe energy – 389kcal, protein 13g, fat – 12g, fiber – 6.5g and variations were calculated. The pH and alcoholic acidity of the products were estimated using standard procedures. The products were subjected to sensory analysis through Hedonic rating test and the results revealed that sample B scored the highest. The cost of the products per 100g ranged from Rs. 9 to Rs. 14. From the results it is clear that the sample B prepared with jaggery was the most acceptable and hence, can be recommended for the patients suffering with cardiovascular diseases.

DAMA- DIETARY APPROACH TO MANAGE ATHEROSCLEROSIS.pptJYOTI PACHISIA
Atherosclerosis is a disease where plaque builds up in the arteries, limiting blood flow. It is caused by chronic inflammation and is the leading cause of heart attacks and strokes. Lifestyle changes like a healthy diet, exercise, weight control, and avoiding tobacco can help prevent and manage atherosclerosis. Functional foods rich in antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, fiber and other nutrients may also help reduce the risk and progression of atherosclerosis. These include fish, nuts, citrus fruits, soy, tea, coffee, and cocoa. Proper diagnosis and medical treatment of risk factors like high cholesterol, hypertension, and diabetes are also important to treat atherosclerosis.

Hosted by with Sophie Tully BSc MSc, 10th October
This presentation addresses the role of cholesterol in CVD and the latest evidence into nutritional strategies to manage and treat high cholesterol and support healthy CVD function. Sophie covers the aetiology of CVD and why cholesterol has long been considered an important marker of CVD health and the emergence of newly identified CVD risk factors which may offer a more effective diagnostic tool. Finally she discusses new opinions on nutritional approaches to keep cholesterol levels healthy and prevent CVD events.
1. Adiponectin is a hormone produced by adipose tissue that plays an important role in glucose regulation and fatty acid catabolism. Low levels are associated with obesity, diabetes, and other insulin resistant states.
2. The document discusses the history, structure, receptors and metabolic effects of adiponectin. It acts through receptors AdipoR1/R2 to increase fatty acid oxidation and insulin sensitivity.
3. Dysregulation of adiponectin is implicated in metabolic syndrome and related conditions. Certain drugs like thiazolidinediones are shown to increase adiponectin levels and may have therapeutic potential.
Every year more than 1.5 million people are affected new cancer cases in US. According to Jaganath (2008), 56.5 million people dead annually due to chronic degenerative disease. 220 million people are affected with diabetes in the world (WHO 2011) and it will be more than 350 million by 2030 (WHO 2003). Total healthcare cost of diabetes is US$5621 per person in developed countries, US$356 in developing countries and $160 in Bangladesh (Islam et al., 2017).
So, what will be our strategy to get rid of this?
Fruits and vegetables are rich sources of a wide range of vital micronutrients, vitamins (provitamin A carotenoids, vitamin C, and folate), phytochemicals (non - provitamin A carotenoids and polyphenols), and fiber (Amiot and Lairon, 2010 ). These components with a wide range of chemical structures and functionality provide different beneficial effects beyond simple nutrition, resulting in improved health. In general, fruits and vegetables are generally low - energy foods because of a high proportion of nondigestible carbohydrate polymers such as cellulose and pectin and lower levels of proteins and lipids. Thus, fruits and vegetables supplement the high - energy foods in diet and can be seen to provide a balance in the transit of food through the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), as well as to aid digestion and subsequent action by the gut microflora in the large intestine. The influence of fruit and vegetable components (prebiotics) in intestinal health, through viscosity modification of foods during their transition through the GIT, immunity modulation, prevention of inflammation, and maintenance of an ideal population of microflora (probiotics) is continuously being unraveled.
A balanced diet provides essential nutrition from a variety of plant and animal foods to support human health and prevent disease. International health organizations recommend diets high in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and plant-based proteins while limiting red meat, sugar and unhealthy fats. Specific diets also target conditions like hypertension through low sodium intake and weight control through calorie reduction. Unhealthy diets lacking these nutrients are a major risk factor for chronic diseases globally.
CVD is a major health problem caused by plaque buildup in arteries. Vitamin E helps prevent CVD by protecting LDL from oxidation, a key step in plaque formation. The document discusses how vitamin E works as an antioxidant, the bioavailability of its different forms, and dietary sources of vitamin E like vegetables, nuts and seeds that are part of heart-healthy diets like the AHA and DASH diets and may help reduce CVD risk.
CVD is a major health problem caused by plaque buildup in arteries. Vitamin E helps prevent CVD by protecting LDL from oxidation, a key step in plaque formation. The document discusses the role of vitamin E and oxidative stress in CVD, how vitamin E works as an antioxidant to prevent LDL oxidation, and dietary recommendations like the AHA diet and DASH diet that include vitamin E-rich foods to help reduce CVD risk.
The effects of dietary fats on the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) have traditionally
been estimated from their effects on LDL cholesterol. Fats, however, also affect HDL
cholesterol, and the ratio of total to HDL cholesterol is a more specific marker of CAD than is
LDL cholesterol. Hypolipidemic drugs and fruits can play a part to reduce LDL particles
decreasing chances of CAD development. This study was conducted to compare
hypolipidemic effects of Niacin and Jujube fruit in primary as well as secondary
hyperlipidemic patients. Study was conducted from November 2018 to February 2019 at
Jinnah Hospital Lahore. Sixty participants were enrolled of both gender male and female
patients age range from 20 to 70 years. Consent was taken from all patients. They were
divided in two groups. Group-I was advised to take 2 grams Niacin in divided doses for the
period of two months. Group-II was advised to take 500 grams of fruit Jujube daily for the
period of two months. Their baseline LDL and HDL cholesterol was determined by
conventional method of measuring Lipid Profile. After two months therapy, their post
treatment lipid profile was measured and mean values with ± SEM were analyzed
biostatistically. Group-I which was on Niacin their LDL cholesterol decreased significantly and
HDL cholesterol was increased significantly. In group-II patients LDL cholesterol was
decreased significantly but HDL increase was not significant with p-value of >0.05. It was
concluded from the research work that Niacin is potent in lowering LDL and increasing HDL
cholesterol, while Jujube has significant effect as LDL cholesterol lowering potential, but it
does not increase HDL cholesterol significantly.

PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 1
2. The cardiovascular system consists of the heart and its blood vessels.
Cardiovascular disease, also known as heart disease, refers to the following 4 entities:
Coronary artery disease (CAD) which is also referred to as coronary heart disease (CHD),
Cerebrovascular disease,
Peripheral artery disease (PAD), and
Aortic atherosclerosis.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 2
3. CAD results from decreased myocardial perfusion that causes angina due to ischemia and can
result in myocardial infarction (MI).
Cerebrovascular disease is the entity associated with strokes, also termed cerebrovascular
accidents, and transient ischemic attacks (TIAs).
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is arterial disease predominantly involving the limbs that may
result in claudication.
Aortic atherosclerosis is the entity associated with thoracic and abdominal aneurysms.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 3
5. Factors
Non-modifiable cardiovascular risk factors - gender, age, ethnicity, and family history of
cardiovascular disease.
Modifiable risk factors - body weight, dietary pattern, physical activity, smoking, alcohol
consumption, and exposure to stress.
Factors that can be partially considered modifiable are hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes,
and obesity.

7. Cardioprotective Food Ingredients
Foods can prevent the onset of cardiovascular disease.
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)-Its oxidized form, ubiquinone, takes an active part in energy production
in mitochondria by transporting electrons between protein complexes in the respiratory chain.
The reduced form, ubiquinol, by taking up oxygen, reduces stress. These properties of CoQ10
make it an essential component for the function of all cells, especially cardiomyocytes.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 7
8. The antioxidant properties of this coenzyme improve endothelial function and have a beneficial
effect on the lipid profile.
Sources- fatty fish, soy products, nuts, and green vegetables such as spinach.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 8
9. Omega-3 fatty acids
Essential unsaturated fatty acids show activity in support of the cardiovascular system
Omega-3 fatty acids belonging to this group are distinguished by specific cardioprotective
properties.
Lowering the concentration of pro-inflammatory interleukins, contribute to improving the
functioning of the endothelium of blood vessels, reducing the degree of platelet aggregation
and clot formation, as well as lowering the concentration of triglycerides.
They have also been shown to have a hypotensive effect.
Sources-Marine fish (especially fatty fish such as salmon), as well as seaweeds, chia seeds, and
linseed.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 9
10. Plant-derived sterols - Antioxidant and lipid profile-enhancing effects are also attributed to
sitosterol.
Plant phytosterols are abundant in oils, vegetables, fruits, (especially sprouts), nuts, and pulses.
Vitamin E - cardiovascular protection by acting at several stages of the thrombotic process.
1. Counteracts hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, and endothelial dysfunction by reducing foam
cell infiltration and decreasing lipid peroxidation.
2. Reduces platelet aggregation thus preventing thrombosis.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 10
11. Polyphenols-
1. Lowering blood pressure
2. Endothelial function improvement
3. Lipid profile improvement
4. Reducing the risk of CVD development
Sources- fruits, vegetable oil, berries, nuts, tea, coffee, and chocolate
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 11
12. Tea polyphenols, known as catechins, are the main bioactive substances responsible for the
beneficial effects of tea on CVD risk.
Nuts are a rich source of phytochemicals (proanthocyanidins, flavonoids, and phenolic acids) and
fat-soluble bioactive and PUFA, tocols, carotenoids, phytosterols, and sphingolipid.

13. Carbohydrates
Excessive consumption of simple carbohydrates (sugar, sweets, high glycemic index products)
increases the risk of developing diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and contributes to the
development of overweight and obesity.
The World Health Organization recommends limiting the intake of simple carbohydrates to 10%
of total caloric needs.
However, it is suggested to consume complex carbohydrates and products with a low glycemic
index, and provide dietary fiber.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 13
14. Dietary Fiber
Dietary fiber consists of vegetable substances, soluble and insoluble, whose digestion is made
possible by probiotic bacteria present in the gastrointestinal tract.
Sources- vegetables, fruits, whole-grain cereal products, and nuts. The daily fiber intake of 27–
40 g recommended by the WHO carries significant health benefits, for the cardiovascular
system.
Fiber - the slow digestion in the gastrointestinal tract, causing delayed gastric emptying, feeling
of satiety, thus reducing the amount of food consumed and preventing excessive body weight.
At the same time, fiber promotes improved intestinal motility.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 14
15. Fats
The risk of cardiovascular disease increases in situations of insufficient supply of
polyunsaturated fatty acids and supply of saturated fatty acids with trans-configuration.
Natural sources of omega-3 include mainly fatty marine fish, chia, flaxseed, and nuts. Therefore,
it is recommended to consume oily sea fish at least twice a week to provide the optimal amount
of essential fats.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 15
17. The Mediterranean diet
Predominance of high-fiber products, whole grain cereals, vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds such as
pumpkin, olive oil, and oily sea fish -products that provide ingredients that have a beneficial
effect on the functioning of the heart and blood vessels.
Intake of saturated fatty acids, trans-configured fatty acids, and animal meat, especially red
meat and meat products, is limited.
As it provides cardioprotective components, the Mediterranean diet reduces the risk of heart
failure and the risk of death, both primary and secondary, from cardiovascular disease.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 17
18. DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop
Hypertension)
Created directly to counteract hypertension and reduce the risk of its complications.
Its main premise is to limit the daily intake of salt, which when supplied in excess leads to an
increase in the amount of water circulating in the vessels, causing an increase in blood pressure.
The DASH dietary model emphasizes the consumption of fruits and vegetables, nuts, dairy
products with limited fat, and plant-based proteins, mainly from legumes.
It has been shown that low amounts of sodium in the DASH diet mitigated the hypotensive
effects of potassium, or conversely, high potassium or calcium in the DASH diet mitigated the
effects of low amounts of sodium.
The diet results in a reduction in cardiovascular risk.
PROF. NIKHAT SIDDIQI 18
19. MIND diet (Mediterranean–DASH
Intervention for the neurodegenerative
delay).
Dietary model is intended to counteract neurodegenerative processes, but at the same time, it
provides the diet food products showing cardioprotective effects.
The MIND dietary model is mainly based on the supply of green vegetables, berries, nuts, oil,
wine and fish, low-fat meat, and dairy.
The diet is rich in vitamin E, flavonoids, and folate which protect the cardiovascular system
through anti-inflammatory effects and prevent abnormal homocysteine metabolism.
