Micronutrients & recovery
Designer foods (e.g., omega-3 enriched eggs, genetically improved grains) and dietary supplements using indigenous phytochemicals can reduce, reverse, and prevent metabolic risks such as oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction, thereby preventing cardiovascular disease.
To improve cardiovascular health, focus on consuming 'designer' foods enriched with beneficial nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids (e.g., specific eggs) and high-quality staple grains. Complement this diet with dietary supplements containing indigenous phytochemicals to target metabolic risks like inflammation and oxidative stress. This approach aims to prevent rather than just manage chronic diseases.
In this article, we would discuss heart healthy diet, designer foods, dietary supplements, and complementary therapies for reduction, reversal, and prevention of metabolic risks, such as oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, altered blood flow, endothelial dysfunction, and subclinical atherosclerosis.
