About This Item

Overview: Considering that elevated blood pressure and insufficient intake of fruits and vegetables rank among the leading risk factors for stroke, one might reasonably expect that people following plant-based diets would face a much lower stroke risk—mirroring the pattern already seen with heart attacks. It may come as a surprise to learn that, until recently, no research had actually examined stroke incidence among vegetarians. And the findings themselves are even more unexpected: while vegetarians did show the anticipated reduction in heart disease risk, those on meat-free diets appeared to face a greater risk of stroke. Assuming this finding holds true, what could be driving it, and what steps might be taken in response?
