Cardiovascular risk and prevention. Influence of vegetable diets.

Abstract

The high prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is associated with lifestyle factors, namely a diet high in animal fat and refined foods, smoking, and insufficient physical activity. An active approach to the prevention of CVD will significantly reduce the financial burden on the state with the costs of more expensive treatment, rather than prevention, and assistance to people with disabilities, and will improve the quality of life and health of people. About half of the deaths from cardiovascular disease caused by metabolic disorders could be prevented by dietary modification, particularly the use of plant-based (vegetarian and vegan) diets, which are effective. The aim of the study. Theoretical analysis and summarization of literary sources for the justification of the use of various diets in cardiovascular diseases to reduce mortality and morbidity among persons with a high risk of CVD and to maintain the health status of people with a low risk of CVD through lifestyle correction.
