The Mediterranean diet appears to be associated with a lower incidence of cardiovascular disease and mortality in women, new observational data suggest.
The studies, which were mainly conducted in the United States and Europe, included 722,495 adult women without previous clinical or subclinical CVD, with a median follow-up of 12.5 years. Stroke incidence was also lower among women who adhered to the Mediterranean diet, although it wasn't considered statistically significant .
At the same time, the authors pointed to several limitations, including the observational nature of all of the studies, the reliance on self-reported food frequency questionnaires, and heterogeneity in the adjustments for influential factors across the studies.Zaman and colleagues called for more sex-specific research in cardiology, including risk factors related to premature menopause, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, and autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus.
