Ultra-processed Foods and Cardiovascular Diseases: Potential Mechanisms of Action.

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
In this paper, the authors summarized the current evidence on the putative biological mechanisms underlying the associations between ultra-processed foods and CVD, including altered serum lipid concentrations, modified gut microbiota and host-microbiota interactions, obesity, inflammation, oxidative stress, dysglycemia, insulin resistance, and hypertension.

2021 Dietary Guidance to Improve Cardiovascular Health: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association.

TL;DR: The importance of dietary patterns beyond individual foods or nutrients, underscores the critical role of nutrition early in life, presents elements of heart healthy dietary patterns, and highlights structural challenges that impede adherence to heart-healthy dietary patterns as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases: Going beyond traditional risk factors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review aimed to evaluate the relationship between the traditional components of metabolic syndrome (MS) with cardiovascular disease (CVD), inflammation, and oxidative stress, and found that chronic low-grade inflammatory states and metaflammation are often accompanied by metabolic changes directly related to CVD incidence.

Ultra-processed food consumption among US adults from 2001 to 2018.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined US secular trends in food consumption according to processing level from 2001 to 2018 and found that the consumption of ultra-processed foods increased among all US adults from 2001-2002 to 2017-2018 (from 53.5 to 57.0 %kcal).
Journal ArticleDOI

Rethinking healthy eating in light of the gut microbiome.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors discuss contemporary nutritional recommendations from a microbiome science perspective, focusing on mechanistic evidence that established host-microbe interactions as mediators of the physiological effects of diet.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does the concept of "ultra-processed foods" help inform dietary guidelines, beyond conventional classification systems? YES.

TL;DR: Existing evidence is sufficient to recommend the avoidance of ultra-processed foods to optimize health and policies to support and make feasible this recommendation.

Global, regional, and national burden of cardiovascular diseases for 10 causes, 1990 to 2015

Gregory A. Roth, +173 more
TL;DR: The GBD (Global Burden of Disease) 2015 study integrated data on disease incidence, prevalence, and mortality to produce consistent, up-to-date estimates for cardiovascular burden, finding that CVDs remain a major cause of health loss for all regions of the world.

Dietary and Policy Priorities for Cardiovascular Disease, Diabetes, and Obesity: A Comprehensive Review

TL;DR: This review considers the history, new evidence, controversies, and corresponding lessons for modern dietary and policy priorities for cardiovascular diseases, obesity, and diabetes mellitus, and identifies major identified themes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Impact of Dietary Fiber on Gut Microbiota in Host Health and Disease.

TL;DR: This review will focus on dietary fibers, which interact directly with gut microbes and lead to the production of key metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids, and discuss how dietary fiber impacts gut microbial ecology, host physiology, and health.
