Premature death: The small change in diet reduces the risk of



A small and simple than substantial change in diet, may in the long run greatly reduce the risk of premature death.

In conclusion led researchers at the University of Ohio, Dr. Mercedes-Soto Prieto, who showed that high quality nutrition in 12 years horizon associated with a reduced risk of death over the next 12 years.

The researchers analyzed the relationship between changes in the nutritional quality of a sample of almost 74,000 adults for the period 1986-1998 and the risk of death over the next 12 years, ie the period from 1998 to 2010.

They found a 20% increase in diet quality score was associated with a 8-17% reduction in the risk of death and reduced quality of food was associated with a 6-12% increase in risk.

The researchers suggest that eating more whole grains, fruits, nuts and less red and processed meat and soft drinks with sugar, contributes to the reduction of total and cardiovascular mortality.

"Our findings underscore the benefits of healthy dietary patterns, including the Mediterranean. The study shows that even small improvements in the quality of nutrition has significant influence on the risk of death, while the deterioration of the nutritional quality increases the risk, "says Dr. Soto-Prieto.

Foods which further improves the nutritional quality was whole grains, fruits, vegetables and fish or omega-3 fatty acids.

Even among those who spent on unhealthy diets at baseline, but eventually their scores improved along the way, the coming years risk of death was reduced.
