Association of plant-based diets with subclinical cardiovascular disease in U.S. adults, 1999-2004
Higher adherence to a healthy plant-based diet was inversely associated with elevated cTnI and higher adherence to an unhealthy plant-based diet was positively associated with elevated cTnI in a nationally representative sample of U.S. adults. Supporting access to and adoption of healthy plant-based diets may be a useful strategy for promoting population-level cardiovascular health.
