vegetable protein reduces risk of heart disease

For many years, many studies have been alerting to the dangers of red meat . But are plant alternatives really better for health? A study published in the journal Circulation indicates that vegetable proteins could reduce cardiovascular risks. 

Lower cholesterol levels 

Researchers from the TH Chan School of Public Health in Harvard and Purdue University in the United States collected data from 36 studies. The panel studied included a total of 1,803 participants, some of whom ate red meat and the other alternatives: chicken, fish, starchy foods or vegetable proteins. Scientists have studied the results of their blood tests by looking at various cardiovascular risk factors such as cholesterol, triglycerides, lipoproteins and blood pressure. 
The results of the analyzes show no significant difference between the consumption of red meat, chicken , fish or starchy foods , except for triglyceride levels, which is higher among consumers of red meat. The vegetarian diet would be the only one to improve cardiovascular health: the consumption of vegetables, nuts and soy was correlated with lower levels of cholesterol and LDL, the " bad cholesterol ". 

Results to be confirmed 



The researchers say that further studies are needed to confirm these results, but already recommend Mediterranean or vegetarian diets, considered better for health. A study published in December 2018 confirms the interest of the Mediterranean diet : when followed with rigor, it would reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by 25%.
