Introduction

The association between dietary carbohydrates and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk is an important topic of research. This study aimed to examine the association between types and sources of dietary carbohydrates and CVD risk in a prospective study.

Methods

This study included data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2010. Participants were divided into four groups based on their dietary carbohydrate intake. The four groups were low-carbohydrate (<40%), moderate-carbohydrate (40-50%), high-carbohydrate (>50%), and very-high-carbohydrate (>60%). The primary outcome was the risk of CVD, which was assessed using the Framingham Risk Score.

Results

The results of this study showed that there was a significant association between types and sources of dietary carbohydrates and CVD risk. The risk of CVD was higher in the very-high-carbohydrate group compared to the low-carbohydrate group. The risk of CVD was also higher in the moderate-carbohydrate group compared to the low-carbohydrate group. Furthermore, the risk of CVD was higher in the high-carbohydrate group compared to the low-carbohydrate group.

Conclusion

This study provides evidence that dietary carbohydrates are associated with CVD risk. The risk of CVD was higher in the very-high-carbohydrate group compared to the low-carbohydrate group. Furthermore, the risk of CVD was higher in the moderate-carbohydrate group compared to the low-carbohydrate group, and the risk of CVD was higher in the high-carbohydrate group compared to the low-carbohydrate group. Therefore, it is important to be aware of the types and sources of dietary carbohydrates and their potential impact on CVD risk. #Carbohydrates #CVD #DietaryHabits #HealthyEating #CardiovascularDisease

In conclusion, this study found that dietary carbohydrates are associated with CVD risk. The risk of CVD was higher in the very-high-carbohydrate group compared to the low-carbohydrate group. Furthermore, the risk of CVD was higher in the moderate-carbohydrate group compared to the low-carbohydrate group, and the risk of CVD was higher in the high-carbohydrate group compared to the low-carbohydrate group.
