A new review published in the medical journal
Cardiovascular Research provides more encouraging news for those embracing a plant-based lifestyle: Eating a diet rich in plant-based foods was linked to a lower risk for cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis as compared to diets that include animal products.
Atherosclerosis, which is sometimes called hardening of the arteries affects 14 million Americans, and Cardiovascular Artery Disease, or CAD, is a leading cause of heart attack, stroke and fatal heart conditions, or Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) according to MedScape figures. Approximately 80 million people, or 36.3 percent of the population, have cardiovascular disease, and often the beginnings or atherosclerosis start in early life and don t show up until later, when there are full-blown blockages and complications from elevated blood pressure in the body.
