Fruits and vegetables to reduce the risk of death

That fruit and vegetables should be a mainstay of our diet is not new, however, a recent study in ten countries has confirmed the virtues of a regular and abundant consumption of such foods as they reduce the risk of mortality in one 10 percent .http://bmarkers.com/story.php?title=healthrevieweds
 Among the participating countries had Spain and work was included as part of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Specifically, we found that this risk reduction is achieved with an average intake of 569 grams of fruit and vegetables . These benefits are manifested particularly in regard to the prevention of cancer and other chronic diseases. " Therefore, one of the most effective prevention activities is the promotion of consumption in the population , "he said about the director of the Granada Cancer Registry of the Andalusian School of Public Health and one of those responsible for research, José María Sánchez Pérez.http://womenhairstyles.info/story.php?title=healthrevieweds
 The analyzed sample included more than 25,600 dead people (about 10,400 cancer, and about 5,100 from cardiovascular disease), among the 451,000 participants studied for over 13 years. As published in the American Journal of Epidemiology , the combined consumption of fruit and vegetables would delay the risk of losing life 1.12 years compared to a lower intake of 250 grams. Moreover, for every 200 grams of daily increase of this consumption, the risk would be reduced by 6 percent , according to researchers. Also, their study concluded that if the entire population increased daily intake of fruits and vegetables between 100 and 200 grams, it could prevent 2.9 percent of deaths. In fact, there are several previous studies that support these findings: the consumption of fruits and vegetables per day in the recommended amounts, prevent the development of chronic diseases, while decrease the risk of mortality between 10 and 25 percent. Specifically, a diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by 15 percent .http://luislauro.us/story.php?title=healthrevieweds
 In addition more than 4 percent of deaths from this cause could have been prevented if they had eaten over 400 grams per day of these foods. Moreover, the reduction in mortality risk by eating fruits and vegetables was higher in participants who consumed alcohol (around 30-40 percent), obese (20 percent) and "possibly" also between smokers snuff. In this sense, the authors noted that quite possibly the highest level of antioxidants present in these natural foods that act by delaying the oxidative stress itself of these addictive substances, and obesity. "Thus, these populations could benefit especially from the positive effects exerted by fruits and vegetables on the prevention of chronic diseases and risk of mortality from these diseases," concluded Sanchez.
