#Tomato pill improves function of blood vessels in patients with cardiovascular diseasea daily supplement of an extract found in tomatoes may improve the function of blood vessels in patients with cardiovascular disease according to new research from the University of Cambridge.
The incidence of cardiovascular disease varies worldwide but is reduced notably in southern Europe where a'Mediterranean diet'consisting of a larger consumption of fruit vegetables and olive oil predominates.
Recent dietary studies suggest that this diet reduces the incidence of events related to the disease including heart attack
Thirty-six cardiovascular disease patients and thirty-six healthy volunteers were given either Ateronon (an off-the-shelf supplement containing 7mg of lycopene) or a placebo treatment.
The patients with cardiovascular disease were all on statins (cholesterol-lowering drugs. However despite this they still had impaired a relatively function of the endothelium--the inner lining of blood vessels--compared to healthy volunteers.
Endothelial function predicts future events so having a healthy endothelium is an important factor in preventing the evolution of heart disease.
constriction of the blood vessels is one of the key factors that can lead to heart attack and stroke.
We've shown quite clearly that lycopene improves the function of blood vessels in cardiovascular disease patients adds Dr Cheriyan.
It reinforces the need for a healthy diet in people at risk from heart disease and stroke.
if this may reduce heart disease--this would need much larger trials to investigate outcomes more carefully.
Professor Jeremy Pearson Associate Medical Director at The british Heart Foundation says Impaired endothelial function is known a predictor of increased risk of future heart disease.

and vegetables are less likely to have a heart attack or stroke but the relationship between fruit and vegetable consumption during young adulthood and heart disease later in life was less clear.
To study this concept researchers evaluated the association between dietary intake of fruits and vegetables in young adults and the presence of coronary artery calcification (CAC) 20 years later.
which is evaluating how heart disease develops throughout adulthood. CARDIA began in the mid-1980s with a group of men
CAC scoring is currently the best predictor we have for future heart attacks Miedema said. Calcium build up in the walls of the coronary arteries is an early sign of heart disease
and the presence of CAC substantially raises an individual's risk for a future heart attack.
In their analysis researchers controlled for smoking exercise consumption of red meat sugar-sweetened beverages and other dietary and cardiovascular risk factors that correlate with atherosclerosis.
Participants with extreme high or low caloric intake/day or those missing CAC scores were excluded from the analysis. The current findings are in line with the 2011 U s. Department of agriculture Dietary Guidelines that advise Americans to fill half of their plates

and heart disease studies conducted over the last several decades investigators found that participants directed to adopt a whole diet approach instead of limiting fat intake had a greater reduction in cardiovascular death and nonfatal myocardial infarction.
Early investigations of the relationship between food and heart disease linked high levels of serum cholesterol to increased intake of saturated fat and subsequently an increased rate of coronary heart disease.
However they did not reduce the incidence of myocardial infarction or coronary heart disease deaths. Carefully analyzing studies
