The Latest On Citrus Fruits And Stroke Risk...

Dear Reader,

Enjoying oranges, grapefruits and other varieties of citrus fruits might just help bring down your risk of dangerous, debilitating stroke according to some new research appearing online in the journal Stroke. While a healthy diet, full of fruits and veggies has been associated with lower stroke risk in other research; no one was sure why this happened.

For this latest work, the team looked only at compounds called flavanones that are part of citrus fruit. They are a type of dietary flavonoid that's been associated in past research with lower stroke risk; it's also found in dark chocolate and red wine.

For this research the team focused on six subclasses of flavonoids (including flavanones) to try and figure out which specific plant foods work on risk of stroke. The team examined 14 years of follow up data that came from the U.S. Nurses' Health Study, including almost 70,000 women who reported their food intake every four years, including details on their consumption of fruits and veggies.

During the follow up period, 1,803 strokes took place, with half being blood clot related. And while total flavonoid intake didn't reduce stroke risk, intake of flavanones did. Women who ate the most flavanones had a 19% lower risk of blood clot related stroke than those who ate the least amounts of these nutrients.

Those who ate the most citrus fruits/juices had a 10% reduced risk of blood clot related stroke than those who didn't eat these foods at all.

According to study lead Aedin Cassidy, head of nutrition at Norwich Medical school at the University of East Anglia, the data offers strong support for adding more citrus fruits to your daily intake of fruits to reduce the risk of blood clot related (ischemic) strokes. It may be that the flavanones in these fruits improve the function of blood vessels, or they may reduce inflammation that has been associated with stroke.

Vitamin C, thought to be the reason for the heart protective effects of citrus fruits was not associated with a lowering of stroke risk in this research.

The Latest On Citrus Fruits And Stroke Risk... Continued...

To get the biggest bang for your buck, the whole fruit is better than the juice because whole foods have more flavanones and only have natural sugar. A typical piece of citrus fruit has 45 to 50 milligrams of flavanones. The higher intake group in the study consumed over 470 milligrams of flavanones per day; the lowest intake was almost 150 milligrams per day.

Now it's also important to understand that those who took in the most flavonoids smoked less and were more active. They ate more fiber, veggies and fruit overall, consumed less alcohol and caffeine. More research is needed to see if the connection holds up between flavonoid consumption and stroke risk, and if it is true for men as well as women.

This research shows us all just how important fruits and vegetables are to our health. The U.S. Dietary Guidelines of America 2010 suggest you to fill half your plate with fruits and veggies at most meals, and this is a good rule of thumb for everyone.

To your good health,
