The researchers found that those whose plant-based diet consisted of mostly non ultra-processed foods had a lower risk of both fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events. Meanwhile, ultra-processed plant-based diets were associated with a higher risk of such events.
Swapping out plant-sourced ultra-processed foods for non ultra-processed, plant-based foods lowered the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality.
These findings advance current knowledge by highlighting that a higher intake of plant-sourced foods may only bring about better cardio.
