Chronic diseases are medical conditions that last more than 3 months depending on the type of disease.
In other words, chronic diseases generally cannot be prevented or cured by medication, nor do they just disappear.

According to the statistics, chronic diseases affect millions of people worldwide, leading to the death of 35 million people in 2005, including many young people and those in middle age.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a group of conditions associated with the heart and blood vessels.

Cardiovascular diseases are chronic diseases that refer to heart diseases, affecting millions of people in the world. According to statistics, over 17.7 million people died from CVDs in 2015.

In other words, anything that serves to damage the inner lining of blood vessels and impedes the transportation of oxygen and nutrition to the heart can be defined as a risk of heart disease.

The causes of cardiovascular diseases are associated with the accumulation of plaques in the arteries, impeding the blood flow which carries the nutrients and oxygen to the heart, which causes damage to the heart tissue and reduced function of the arteries.


Hyperlipidemia and hypertension are the risk factors of the diseases.

According to the statistics cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women in the US with 90% of women having one risk factor.

Believe it or not, women are 4 times more likely to die from heart disease than breast cancer and 2/3 of women are not aware that heart disease is such a risk for them, according to Jean Hailes for Women Health in the article Cardiovascular Health.

According to statistics, heart disease is the second leading cause of death, claiming more than 48,000 lives every year.in Canada.


Cruciferous vegetables are a group of vegetables, belongings to the family Brassicaceae (also called Cruciferae) with many genera, and 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.

In finding a potential remedy for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, researchers the effect of sulforaphane against cardiovascular disease via Nrf2 activation.

According to the results of the experiment,
* Sulforaphane (SFN) is an ITC that exerted anticancer activity in both in vivo and epidemiological studies.
* SFN demonstrated strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in CVD.

* SFN-activated NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) that serves as a defense mechanism against oxidative stress and electrophilic toxicants by inducing more than a hundred cytoprotective proteins, including antioxidants and phase II detoxifying enzymes.


Based on the results, researchers said, "the evidence from clinical studies and animal experiments relating to the potential mechanisms by which SFN modulates Nrf2 activation and protects against CVD".

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