Advice to eat fruits and vegetables, which are raining from many different sources to keep you healthy, are based on epidemiological studies.
Different studies have denied the effect of the incidence on cancer, the inclusion criteria were mixed and the data were not precise enough to give clear answers.
But no matter what the study we look at, it is clear that more people who are over 90 and free of cancers eat significantly more vegetable than those who never reach 65. New studies are on the way with more appropriate data to consider some parameters involved in related diseases.
Regarding the risk factor for cardiovascular disease, no firm conclusions have been made given abundance of conflicting evidence within the literature. Same thing regarding prevention of type 2 Diabetes. New authors* Laurie Barclay, MD_CME and Charles P. Vega, MD tried to investigate further to determine the independent effect of fruit and vegetable consumption on the incidence of type 2 diabetes.
"Increasing daily intake of green leafy vegetables could significantly reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes and should be investigated further," the study authors write.
"Our results support the evidence that 'foods' rather than isolated components such as antioxidants are beneficial for health," the study authors conclude. "Results from several supplement trials have produced disappointing results for prevention of disease, in contrast with epidemiological evidence. Further investigation is warranted to understand the mechanisms involved in the proposed relation between green leafy vegetables and risk of type 2 diabetes."
"Knowing that type 2 Diabetes is a strong independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and the interaction of the 2 diseases, we are tempted to add green leafy vegetables in our everyday eating routine as a 20% risk to be healthier without negative effect.
