Studiu pe 371.000 de oameni. Un gest simplu la masă ar putea fi legat de o inimă mai sănătoasă

In the U.S., official guidelines recommend two cups of fruit daily for a 2,000-calorie diet, but most people fall short. Recent updates to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans emphasize whole fruits over fruit juices. A study involving 371,000 participants found a clear link between higher whole fruit consumption and better cardiovascular health, while fruit juice showed inconsistent associations. Researchers suggest that whole fruits retain beneficial fibers and polyphenols, which may contribute to health benefits. The study indicates that increasing whole fruit intake is essential for cardiovascular health, although it does not establish direct cause-and-effect relationships. Further research is needed to explore these findings over time.
