Main lines of research
Cardiovascular risk factors (nutrition, diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, lipid levels, smoking, etc) affect cardiovascular disease incidence through several physio-pathological pathways . Our group investigates some of these pathways in these research lines:
1- The role of diet on intermediate markers of cardiovascular risk:
• Evaluation of the effect of a Mediterranean diet on the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (Predimed Study) .
• Phytate intake, coronary calcification and risk of cardiovascular disease . • Change in cardiovascular risk score and metabolic syndrome after an intervention based on the
Mediterranean diet . 2 - Phatological implications of obesity:
• Evaluation of an intensive lifestyle intervention based on a low calorie Mediterranean diet, physical activity and conductual treatment on weight loss and cardiovascular disease prevention (Predime- dPlus study) .
