对基督复临安息日会的流行病学研究清楚地表明，饮食习惯与冠心病(CBD)和其他慢性病的风险有关。然而，出现了一些令人惊讶的结果。食用肉类对基督复临安息日教徒来说显然是危险的，因为它会增加冠心病的死亡率，然而，在女性中却没有看到这样的影响。讨论了可能的原因，我们的数据和其他人的数据强烈支持脂肪食物，特别是坚果，作为CHD的保护作用，这一结果对脂肪摄入作为CHD风险因素的可能影响进行了讨论，特别是，可能是适量摄入某些脂肪是有益的，而不是有害的，基督复临安息日教徒患CHD的风险较低可能有一个复杂的解释，当然不能完全用他们的不吸烟状态或较高的血脂水平来解释。基督复临安息日论者是独一无二的，这一群体中的大多数人都采取了要么吃素，要么倾向于这个方向的饮食习惯。讨论了将健康纳入宗教信仰体系的力量。可能其他人也可以实施这样一种对他们有利的模式，(C)1999年美国健康基金会和学术出版社。
Epidemiologic studies of Seventh-Day Adventists have clearly shown that dietary habits are associated with risk of coronary heart disease (CBD) and other chronic diseases. However, a few surprising results emerge. Meat consumption is clearly hazardous for Adventist men by raising CHD mortality, However, no such effect was seen in women. Possible reasons are discussed, Our data and that of others, strongly sup port the role of a fatty food, specifically nuts, as protective for CHD, The possible implications of this result for fat intake as a risk factor for CHD are discussed In particular, it may be that consumption of modest quantities of certain fats is beneficial, rather than hazardous, The lower risk of CHD in Adventists probably has a complicated explanation and certainly cannot he entirely explained by their nonsmoking status or a superior serum lipid profile. Adventists are unique an that the majority of this group have adopted a dietary habit that is either vegetarian or tending in this direction. The power of incorporating health into a system of religious belief is discussed. Possibly others can also implement such a model to their advantage, (C) 1999 American Health Foundation and Academic Press.
