Description
Mohammad Matin Mahjourian and five co-authors link plant-based eating patterns to heart risk measures in people with type 2 diabetes. The study enrolled 490 adults and scored their diets three ways: overall plant-based, healthful plant-based, and unhealthful plant-based, the last heavy in refined and sweet plant foods. Outcomes included newer blood-fat risk scores, body-shape measures, and major heart events such as heart attack, stroke, and bypass surgery.
Closer adherence to the healthful pattern came with clearly better cholesterol-based risk scores. The unhealthful pattern instead tracked with a larger abdominal volume measure. The overall plant-based score came with lower odds of having had bypass surgery. The authors read the split as evidence that the quality of plant foods matters, not just their share of the diet. They call for prospective studies to confirm the links.
