Promotional and protective nutritional aspects of the cardiovascular illnesses
Abstract
In Brazil, cardiovascular diseases firstly appear among the death causes and represent almost one-third of the total deaths. Among the risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, there are some habits related to the life style, as the diet plenty of energy, saturated fats, cholesterol and salt, as well as the consumption of alcoholic beverage, smoking and sedentary. The health benefits promoted by a new food category, deserve prominences, for offering protection against the development of cardiovascular diseases, like soy, oats, fibers, flex seed, fish which are rich in omega 3, garlic, tomato, green tea, grape, among others. The present revision means to argue the role of promotional and protective foods of cardiovascular diseases. In general, the foods which are mentioned on this review have shown an important role in reducing dislipidemias, in increasing HDL cholesterol, in developing an antioxidant action, in reducing systemic blood pressure, and in reducing plaquetary aggregation. The knowledge about these foods is greatly important due to the high incidence of these chronic diseases in the majority of the population, avoiding them to have an alternative, not pharmacological, for their control.
