The Claim
A healthy plant-based diet-lifestyle is associated with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease, and this protective association is significantly stronger among individuals with high genetic risk compared to those with low genetic risk, demonstrating a statistically significant interaction between genetic risk and lifestyle (p < 0.001).
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.
People who eat mostly plants and live healthily are less likely to get heart disease—and this protection is even stronger for people who are genetically more likely to get heart disease anyway.

The protective association between a healthy plant-based diet-lifestyle and coronary heart disease is significantly stronger in individuals with high genetic risk than in those with low genetic risk, indicating a statistically significant interaction between genetics and lifestyle (p < 0.001).
What the research says
1 studyPeople who eat healthy plant-based foods and live well (no smoking, exercise, good sleep) are less likely to get heart disease — and this benefit is even bigger for people who are genetically more likely to get heart disease. The study proved this difference is real and important.
