Efecto del consumo de frutos secos sobre el balance calórico y diferentes factores de riesgo cardiovascular
A cross-sectional study from the PREDIMED-Nureta trial confirms previous findings from epidemiological studies regarding the inverse association between nut consumption and body mass index and also extends them to the abdominal obesity, but this time in a high-risk cardiovascular European population...

| Sumario: | A cross-sectional study from the PREDIMED-Nureta trial confirms previous findings from epidemiological studies regarding the inverse association between nut consumption and body mass index and also extends them to the abdominal obesity, but this time in a high-risk cardiovascular European population with customarily high nut intake. This work also provides new mechanistic aspects regarding nut consumption and regulation of energy balance (body weight, food intake, satiety, energy metabolism) and has shown that regular nut consumption in the context of a healthy diet can alter some metabolic syndrome (MS) abnormalities, such as insulin resistance. It confirms the safety of consuming a daily serving of nuts in the dietary management of subjects with MS. However, long-term studies are required to understand the effect of nut consumption on energy balance and other cardiovascular risk factors probably involved in the development of obesity, type 2 diabetes and other cardiovascular diseases. |
