Notes on the talk later


Interheart researchers concluded that the globalization of a Western pattern diet — high in animal products, fried foods, and salty snacks — is responsible for a third of the risk of heart attack worldwide1. A 'prudent' diet rich in fruits and vegetables reduced risk regardless of location.



Leafy vegetables, such as lettuce and spinach, are core components of the prudent diet as identified by the Interheart study. These vegetables are enriched in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) — essential macronutrients also found in some types of fishes, nuts and cheese. Two types of PUFAs in particular, omega-3 and omega-6, are powerful dietary components because they can change gene expression, both directly and indirectly. PUFAs “act more like hormones than like typical food,” says nutrition scientist Donald Jump of Oregon State University, who studies these macronutrients.

Although most research on PUFAs has focused on their connection to cardiovascular disease, by manipulating an enzyme involved in fatty-acid metabolism Jump's team has demonstrated that PUFAs can also balance blood glucose levels, suggesting a potential treatment for type 2 diabetes2.

“Dietary omega-3s are not usually thought of as a treatment for elevated blood sugar,” says Jump. Yet by studying diet and its effect on metabolic pathways, these types of links are being uncovered.
