Erwin Loh: Can the Mediterranean Diet Reduce Stroke Risk?
Erwin Loh, President of Royal Australasian College of Medical Administrators, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article by Ayesha Z. Sherzai et al, published in Neurology Open Access, adding:
“Mediterranean diet can reduce risk of stroke by up to 25%, long-term study suggests
Two-decade study indicates a diet rich in foods such as olive oil, nuts and vegetables can cut risk of every type of stroke
The study, published in Neurology Open Access, a journal of the American Academy of Neurology, shows an association but does not prove the Mediterranean diet causes a lower risk of stroke.”
Title: Mediterranean Diet and the Risk of Stroke Subtypes in Women
Authors: Ayesha Z. Sherzai, Emily L. Cauble, Emma S. Spielfogel, Joshua Zebadiah Willey, Yian Gu, Nikolaos Scarmeas, James Vincent Lacey, Dean Sherzai, Mitchell S.V. Elkind, Sophia S. Wang
