Guest guest Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 There is a library of info by Grundy, et al, at: http://www8.utsouthwestern.edu/utsw/cda/dept27717/files/93023.html One: http://www.nutrition.org/cgi/content/full/131/4/1322#SEC5 "The Lyon Diet Heart Study (5) and the Indian Heart Study (6) have both shown in clinical trials that diet can prevent fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events in individuals with CVD. In both trials, saturated fats were replaced with monounsaturated fats and -linolenic acid, an n-3 PUFA that is present in canola (rapeseed) oil. Vegetables and fruits were increased in the diets in these studies as well. In addition, fish and fish oil have been shown to reduce all-cause mortality (7 ,8) and cardiovascular death (8) in patients who had myocardial infarction. " Says it all, AFAIC. Regards.
