HYPERLIPOPROTEINEMIAS Chart –

Non-vegetarian diet is poison for the heart

• · Dietary cholesterol, saturated fats and total fats are high in meat and animal products
• · Meat is rich in oxidants which oxidize LDL cho-
• lesterol to atherogenic form
• Meat has no dietary fiber.

Vegetarian diet is the best medicine for the heart.

• · Plant-based diet has no cholesterol, is low in to­tal fat and saturated fats.
• · It is rich in dietary fiber.
• · It is rich in antioxidants which fight degenera­tion and diseaseHow to take good medical history & examination. Read more ... ».

Functional foods

• · Foods containing substances which prevent dis-
• ease and promote health.
• Plant based diet are functional foods They are protective because they have :
• · Phytochemicals
• · Isoflavonoids
• · Lignans
• · Carotenoids
• · Retinols
• · Lycopene
• · Geninstein.

Lifestyle changes in diabetes and CAD can bring about

• · Improvement in coronary artery vasomotor tone.
• · Reduce platelet clumping
• · Reduce blood viscosity
• · Endothelial stability
• · Prevent inflammation of lining of blood vessels
• · Improve collateral circulation
• · Regression of atherosclerosis.

Foods to be avoided

• · Alcohol
• · Smoking
• · Meat
• · Fast foods
• · Snacks.

Recommended supplements

• · Vitamin C 1000 mgjday
• · Vitamin E 400 IUjday
