Heart disease is better treated with a Mediterranean-style diet than cholesterol-lowering drugs, it has been claimed.A study found those who had a diet rich in vegetables, nuts, fish and oils were a third less likely to die early, compared with those who ate larger quantities of red meat, such as beef, and butter.Speaking at a global conference on heart disease in Rome, Italy, leading heart disease expert Professor Giovanni de Gaetano said: "So far research has focused on the general population, which is mainly composed of healthy people."What happens to people who have already suffered from cardiovascular disease?

GETTY A Mediterranean diet rich in olive oil and seafood cuts the risk of dying from heart diseaseThe Mediterranean diet has long been seen as healthy, but now scientists have discovered it actually makes hearts healthier, making patients more likely to survive heart attacks or cardiovascular disease.A study has found those who had a diet rich in vegetables, nuts, fish and oils were a third less likely to die early, compared with those who ate larger quantities of red meat, such as beef, and butter.Professor Giovanni de Gaetano at Neuromed in Pozzilli, Italy said: "Many studies have shown that a Mediterranean lifestyle is associated with a lower risk of various chronic diseases and, importantly, of death from any cause." The study followed 1,200 people with a history of heart attacks, strokes and blocked arteries over seven years.GETTY Fish, vegetables, fruit, nuts and monounsaturated fatty acids – olive oil are recommendedDuring this time, 208 patients died, but it was concluded the closer people were to an ideal Mediterranean diet the less likely they were to be among the fatalities.

London: The Mediterranean diet is associated with a reduced risk of death in patients with a history of cardiovascular disease such as coronary artery disease and stroke, says yet another study on the diet's impact."The Mediterranean diet is widely recognised as one of the healthier nutrition habits in the world," said one of the researchers Professor Giovanni de Gaetano from IRCCS Neuromed Institute in Pozzilli, Italy."We found that among those with a higher adherence to the Mediterranean diet, death from any cause was reduced by 37 per cent in comparison to those who poorly adhered to this dietary regime," de Gaetano said.While beneficial effects of the Mediterranean diet is well documented, research so far has focused on the general population, which is mainly composed of healthy people.
