Journal ArticleDOI

Mediterranean Diet, Traditional Risk Factors, and the Rate of Cardiovascular Complications After Myocardial Infarction Final Report of the Lyon Diet Heart Study

TL;DR: The protective effect of the Mediterranean dietary pattern was maintained up to 4 years after the first infarction, confirming previous intermediate analyses and indicating that a comprehensive strategy to decrease cardiovascular morbidity and mortality should include primarily a cardioprotective diet.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mediterranean Dietary Pattern in a Randomized Trial: Prolonged Survival and Possible Reduced Cancer Rate

TL;DR: This randomized trial suggests that patients following a cardioprotective Mediterranean-type diet have a prolonged survival and may also be protected against cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cretan Mediterranean diet for prevention of coronary heart disease.

TL;DR: A Cretan Mediterranean diet adapted to a Western population protected against coronary heart disease much more efficiently than did the prudent diet, and it appears that the favorable life expectancy of the Cretans could be largely due to their diet.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic Dietary Intake of Plant-Derived Anthocyanins Protects the Rat Heart against Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury

TL;DR: Cardioprotection was associated with increased myocardial glutathione levels, suggesting that dietary anthocyanins might modulate cardiac antioxidant defenses and emphasize the need to develop anthOCyanin-rich functional foods with protective activities for promoting human health.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of a mediterranean type of diet on the rate of cardiovascular complications in patients with coronary artery disease insights into the cardioprotective effect of certain nutriments

TL;DR: The hypothesis is that different pathogenetic mechanisms were responsible for the development of the various complications in the Lyon Diet Heart Study and it is likely that certain nutriments characteristic of the Mediterranean diet have specific cardioprotective effects.
