Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the short-term effects of a reduced fat plant-based diet on biomarkers of inflammation, oxidative stress and cardiovascular risk. This plant-based diet consists of whole grains, fruits and vegetables and little amounts of nuts and seeds, with no limitations on the amount of food intake. Animal products are not allowed. The results of the plant-based diet will be compared with the diet recommended by American Heart Association. This diet also emphasizes fruits and vegetables, but allows healthy fats, low-fat meats, fish and low-fat dairy in moderation. The results of the study might be useful in understanding whether or not plant-based diets are protective against cardiovascular disease.
