Nutrition is the consumption of a balanced and healthy diet. It is the process by which the body absorbs and utilizes food, as well as other nourishing materials. Poor nutrition can play a significant role in increasing the risk of cardiometabolic diseases but a nutrient-rich and well-balanced diet can assist in significantly lowering or preventing the risk of these diseases. Various risk factors affecting the cardiometabolic health are influenced by diet, most notably dyslipidemia, high blood pressure, excessive body fat and poor glucose metabolism. A balanced diet that includes necessary omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, plant-based meals, non-nutritive bioactive compounds, and lean meats lower the cardiometabolic risks. Various other important nutrients, such as soluble fibers like oat beta-glucan, as well as vitamins C and E have also been discovered to boost heart function. Thus, improving diet quality and dietary intake becomes crucial for maintaining cardiometabolic health. This book unravels the recent studies on the role of nutrition in cardiometabolic health. The readers would gain knowledge that would broaden their perspective in this area of study.
