The Claim
A plant-based diet significantly improves lipid profiles in at-risk individuals and coronary heart disease patients by lowering total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and triglycerides, which may reduce atherosclerosis progression and cardiovascular risk.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Eating mostly plants like vegetables, fruits, beans, and whole grains can help lower bad fats in your blood, which might keep your heart healthier and reduce your risk of heart disease.
