Abstract

Heart Disease is the common objective mortality in Western countries, responsible for about 30 percent of all losses around the globe. Proof demonstrates how effective safe dietary habits and behaviors are in preventing CVD. Besides, the growing prevalence of CVD over the last 30 years has become a concern for public health, in particular the prevention of CVD (or cardiovascular events) by lifestyle interventions. Modern experimental research indicates that Western dietary habits matched to healthy dietary models, such as the Mediterranean diet, result in increased proinflammatory cytokine production associated with decreased anti-inflammatory cytokine synthesis.
