Hello Matt Muckleroy!

Fruit and Cereal Fiber May Reduce Cardiovascular Disease Risk

In a recently published study, researchers from Harvard and the University of
Minnesota analyzed data from 10 prospective studies, involving 91,058 men and
245,186 women, from the U.S. and Europe to investigate whether the type of
dietary fiber affected coronary heart disease (CHD) risk. The researchers found
a 14% decrease in risk from all CHD events, and a 27% decreased risk of
coronary death for each 10 gram/day increase in dietary fiber. There was an
even stronger association between cereal and fruit fiber and CHD risk
(vegetable fiber intake was not associated with reduced risk of CHD incidence
or mortality in this group). The results were similar for both men and women.

Many studies have shown that dietary fiber may reduce the risk of CHD through a
variety of mechanisms. However, few epidemiological studies of dietary fiber
intake and risk of CHD have compared fiber types (cereal, fruit, and vegetable)
or included gender-specific results. Conclusion: A diet that is rich in varied
fiber sources, especially from cereal grains and fruit, is associated with a
reduced risk in coronary heart disease.
