People who followed the Atlantic diet eating pattern significantly reduced their waistlines and improved their cholesterol levels, a new study shows.
Feb. 12, 2024 –
The researchers randomly assigned the members of 231 families in Spain to either follow a guided Atlantic diet for 6 months or simply follow their usual diet and lifestyle and serve as a comparison group to the Atlantic diet eaters. The families in the study included 231 men and 343 women who ranged in age from 18 to 85 years old, with an average age of 47.
The findings are important because about 1 in 3 adults in the U.S. have metabolic syndrome, which increases a person’s risk for heart disease, diabetes, and stroke, according to data from the National Institutes of Health.
