The Western pattern diet or typical American diet is a modern dietary pattern associated with a high intake of processed foods, red meat, processed meat, fried and refined foods, and high sugar.
The Western pattern diet has also been found to induce chronic diseases. Dr. Hariharan D, the lead scientist wrote, "Characteristics of the Western diet that fueled the obesity epidemic may also impact kidney disease incidence and progression. Enlarging portion sizes over the past half-century have been accompanied by increased intake of protein, sodium, and processed foods while consumption of fruits and vegetables has declined".
And, ", the Western diet, characterized by high intake of red meat, animal fat, sweets, and desserts and low intake of fresh fruits and vegetables and low-fat dairy products, increases risk of chronic diseases".
The results clearly suggested, that if you are following a traditional diet with high fruits and vegetables and fewer processed food, saturated and trans fat, and red meat accompanied by moderate exercise daily, you are at a substantially decreased risk of chronic disease, compared to those who follow the Western diet.
Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions that increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, including too much fat around the waist, high blood pressure, triglycerides, and blood sugar, and low HDL cholesterol.
In other words, if you process 3 of the aforementioned conditions, you are at a higher risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. However, most people with metabolic syndrome have never developed
CVD and diabetes.
Other than high blood glucose, most patients with metabolic conditions are asymptomatic.
Epidemiologically, aging, ethnicity, obesity, medical conditions such as diabetes, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and polycystic ovary syndrome are the most common risk factors found in patients with the syndrome.
Green peas are a species of Pisum Sativum belonging to the family Fabaceae and native to western Asia from the Mediterranean Sea to the Himalayas Mountains. The pea is a green, pod-shaped vegetable and a cool-season crop grown in many parts of the world.
In finding a potent ingredient for the reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, researchers investigated the association between major dietary patterns and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in individuals with impaired glucose tolerance.
The cross-sectional study included a total of 425 subjects 35 to 55 years of age. According to the returned food-frequency questionnaire from participants,
* The Western pattern with a high in sweets, butter, soda, mayonnaise, sugar, cookies, the tail of a lamb, hydrogenated fat, and eggs was associated with greater odds of having increased triacylglycerol (odds ratio 1.76, 95% confidence interval 1.01-3.07) and blood pressure (odds ratio 2.62, 95% confidence interval 1.32-5.23).
* The prudent pattern with a high in fish, peas, honey, nuts, juice, dry fruits, vegetable oil, liver and organic meat, and coconuts and low in hydrogenated fat and non-leafy vegetables was associated with a prevalence of low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (odds ratio 0.55, 95% confidence interval 0.31-0.96).
* The vegetarian dietary pattern was inversely associated with a risk of an abnormal fasting blood glucose level (odds ratio 2.26, 95% confidence interval 1.25-4.06).
Based on the findings, researchers said, "Major dietary patterns were significantly associated with the risk of metabolic syndrome".
Taken together, People who follow the Western diet are at a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes comapred to other dietary patterns.
