Healthy Foods Cruciferous Vegetables Reduce the Risk of Atherosclerosis

Cardiovascular disease is a group of conditions triggered by the abnormal function of the heart and blood vessels.

The 3 most common forms of cardiovascular disease in North America are coronary artery disease, peripheral artery disease, and carotid artery disease caused by plaques build-up of plaque in the arteries that supply blood to the heart, the arms and legs, and the brain.


Atherosclerosis is a medical condition caused by plaques accumulated on the wall of the arteries, leading to narrowing the arteries in transporting oxygenated blood to the heart and other parts of the body.

Atherosclerosis is a slow, progressive disease that may begin as early as childhood, caused by damage to the inner lining of the artery. However, the actual causes of the condition are debatable.

Depending on the blood obstruction, atherosclerosis can induce different types of heart disease and stroke.

Plaque is the make of cholesterols, calcium, and other toxic substances, including cadmium.

According to the statistics provided by Atherosclerosis Open Acess, 32% of deaths account for atherosclerosis, including 13.8% among adults of 20 years and above. In 2010, coronary heart disease mortality rate was about 60%.

Risk factors of atherosclerosis include high blood pressure and cholesterol, diabetes, being overweight or obese, an unhealthy diet, a family history of heart disease and physical inactivity, particularly smoking.

Some researchers suggested that since cholesterol makes up a big part in the plaque, an unhealthy diet with high saturated trans fat, red meat and processed meat may be the major cause of atherosclerosis.


Cruciferous vegetables are a group of vegetables, belongings to the family Brassicaceae (also called Cruciferae) with many genera, species, and cultivated all over the world in suitable climate for commercial profits, including cauliflower, cabbage, kale, garden cress, bok choy, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and green leafy vegetables.

On finding a potential remedy for the prevention of plaque accumulated on the arterial wall, researchers the effect of vegetable intake alone, and relationships to specific types of vegetables containing different phytochemical profiles on atherosclerosis.

According to the food-questionnaire returned by the participants, using the total vegetable intake calculated at baseline (1998),
* Women consuming ≥3 servings of vegetables each day had ≈4.6% to 5.0% lower mean common carotid artery IMT (CCA-IMT, P=0.014) and maximum CCA-IMT (P=0.004) compared with participants consuming <2 servings of vegetables.

* Furthermore, for each 10 g/d higher in cruciferous vegetable intake, there was an associated 0.006 mm (0.8%) lower mean CCA-IMT (P<0.01) and 0.007 mm (0.8%) lower maximum CCA-IMT (P<0.01).

* Some vegetable types showed no associated with CCA-IMT (P>0.05).

* Interestingly, there were no associations observed between vegetables and plaque severity (P>0.05).


Based on the results, researchers said, "Increasing vegetables in the diet with a focus on consuming cruciferous vegetables may have benefits for the prevention of subclinical atherosclerosis in older adult women".

Taken altogether, cruciferous vegetables may be considered functional remedies for the prevention of atherosclerosis, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
