Canker sores and cardiovascular disease

The Polish Cardiological Society warns that cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality in Poland (deaths before age 65).

1. Risk factors for cardiovascular disease

Other risk factors include smoking, improper diet, elevated blood pressure, too high LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, excess body weight. Mink et al. 2007). Risk factors for cardiovascular disease can be divided into modifiable and non-modifiable. Analysis of data from the Iowa Womens Helath Study showed a link between strawberry consumption and lower mortality from heart disease among study women during menopause (P.J. Why can strawberries be assumed to have a beneficial effect on the heart?

2. The bioactive ingredients of strawberries

Therefore, strawberries and other berries have been attributed with prophylactic properties against certain chronic diseases such as diabetes, depression, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and cardiovascular disease. Bioactive ingredients can increase the antioxidant activity of cells, reduce the intensity of inflammation, and thus protect cells from mutation. In addition to being high in some vitamins, especially vitamin C and folic acid, peaches also contain other bioactive components such as phenolic acids (hydroxycinnamon acid, hydroxybenzoic acid), flavonoids (including anthocyanins).

3. The effect of adding strawberries to your diet

The results of this study do not yet support the recommendation that triglycerides should be used as an effective means of reducing the risk of heart disease. However, only participants in this intervention group consumed 50 g of freeze-dried strawberries per day for 8 weeks (a dose of 50 g was 500 g of fresh strawberry), while the control group drank the same amount of water.

4. How many strawberries to eat?

Researchers once every 4 years for 18 years assessed the frequency of consumption of certain products by women aged 2542 years. An inverse relationship was observed between the consumption of anthocyanins (a dye found among other things in berries) and the risk of developing MS during this time period. It is currently difficult to determine how eating strawberries can reduce the risk for cardiovascular disease Is it a result of a decrease in the concentration of so-called bad cholesterol?

5. Frosted strawberries

Before freezing, the strawberries should be washed and cut off. They should be stored in the freezer for about 2 hours. An earlier freeze will prevent them from freezing. This effect can be achieved by following a well-balanced diet and avoiding any risk factors for cardiovascular disease that may affect them. A great way to have access to them outside the season is to freeze.
