TL;DR: It is suggested that consumption of a Med Diet reduces the postprandial inflammatory response in mononuclear cells compared with the SFA-rich and CHO-PUFA diets in elderly people, partly responsible for the lower CVD risk found in populations with a high adherence to the Med Diet.

TL;DR: The Coronary Diet Intervention with Olive oil and cardiovascular PREVention study (CORDIOPREV study, clinical trials number NCT00924937) is to compare the ability of a Mediterranean diet rich in virgin olive oil versus a low-fat diet to influence the composite incidence of cardiovascular events after 7 years in subjects with documented coronary heart disease at baseline.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the long-term consumption of a healthy diet model with HMUFA attenuates the postprandial inflammatory state associated with MetS.

TL;DR: In secondary prevention, the Mediterranean diet was superior to the low-fat diet in preventing major cardiovascular events, and more evident in men than in women, which is relevant to clinical practice.

TL;DR: The notion that a chronic consumption of a healthy diet may play a contributing role in triggering glucose metabolism by interacting with the rs1801260 SNP at CLOCK gene locus in MetS patients is supported.
