Project Abstract

Abstract
The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases has been a major concern worldwide, particularly among middle-aged adults. Dietary patterns play a crucial role in the prevention and management of cardiovascular health. This research project focuses on investigating the effects of plant-based diets on cardiovascular health in middle-aged adults. The study aims to explore the potential benefits of plant-based diets in reducing the risk factors associated with cardiovascular diseases in this specific population group.

The findings from this study have the potential to contribute to the development of dietary interventions aimed at reducing the burden of cardiovascular diseases in this population group. By understanding the benefits and challenges associated with plant-based diets, healthcare professionals can better tailor dietary recommendations for middle-aged adults to improve their cardiovascular health outcomes.
