Gesundes Herz mit High Carb

700 Mitglieder eines im Dschungel lebenden Indianer-Volkes wurde auf Herzgesundheit untersucht. Dabei zeigte es sich, dass die Menschen dort außergewöhnlich herzgesund sind und praktisch keine Arterienverkalkung haben, trotz einer "Hi carb" Ernährung (mit viel Ballaststoffen).

The researchers found that 85 percent of the Tsimane people in the study had almost no risk of heart disease, and only 3 percent of the people had a moderate or high risk. In a group of Americans in the same age group (45 to 84 years old), on the other hand, only 14 percent had almost no risk of heart disease, and 50 percent had a moderate or high risk, according to the study.

Even among the Tsimane ages 75 and older, 65 percent had almost no risk of heart disease, and 8 percent had a moderate or high risk.

The researchers searched for previous population-based studies and found that these risk levels were the lowest reported in the literature to date.

Although it is unclear exactly what biological mechanisms protect the Tsimane from hardening of the arteries, the researchers noted that lifestyle factors likely play a large role.

For example, the Tsimane diet consists of 14 percent protein, 14 percent fat and 72 percent fiber-rich carbohydrates, including corn, plantains and manioc, which is a starchy root, the researchers wrote.

Prozentuell berechnen kann ich es nicht, ich bin jedenfalls (unabhängig von ihm) ungefähr bei Pape gelandet:
Morgens Carbs mit Ballaststoffen und VitC - mittags einen Mix aller 3 auf Gemüsebasis - abends Proteine und Fette.
