Consuming more plant-based protein, relative to animal-based protein, is associated with lower risk of cardiovascular and coronary artery disease, but not stroke
Replacing just 3% of red & processed meat with plant protein seems to reduce risk of CVD ~10-17%

07.12.2024 23:09 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Future work, using more robust PA measurement tools, should longitudinally investigate these cross-sectional associations, especially within the context of occupational PA.
07.12.2024 23:09 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0We found that leisure-time PA, and to a lesser extent transportation PA, were associated with more favorable CMH, while occupational/household PA was not associated or, in some cases, was inversely associated with CMH
07.12.2024 23:08 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0We aimed to investigate, cross-sectionally, the total and domain-specific relationships between PA and cardiometabolic health (CMH) in a nationally-representative sample of U.S. adults
07.12.2024 23:08 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Current physical activity guidelines currently do not distinguish between domains of PA (i.e., occupational, household, transportation, and leisure-time) as they relate to health. Some evidence suggests PA's effects may differ, depending on the domain in which it's undertaken in
