代谢综合征(MetS)代表一系列医学疾病,例如高血糖、血脂异常、高血压和腹部肥胖,当这些疾病同时发生时,会增加患心血管疾病的风险。过去 15 年来,食物和营养素在慢性病病因学中的作用变得更加清晰。在这篇综述中,我们通过分析记录地中海饮食在采用这种饮食模式的受试者中患病率的流行病学报告,收集了地中海饮食对代谢综合征有益影响的证据。我们还探讨了饮食中各个成分对 MetS 特征的具体方面(即代谢指数、体重和血压)的作用。有充分的证据表明,坚持地中海饮食的受试者的 MetS 患病率和发病率低于不坚持地中海饮食的受试者。此外,广泛记录表明,这种饮食模式的特定成分在预防多种与 MetS 相关的疾病方面发挥着作用。
The metabolic syndrome (MetS) represents a cluster of medical disorders, such as hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and abdominal obesity that, when occurring together, increase the risk of developing cardiovascular disease. The role of food and nutrients in the aetiology of chronic diseases has become clearer over the last 15 years. In this review we collected evidence on the beneficial impact of the Mediterranean diet on MetS by analyzing epidemiological reports documenting its prevalence in subjects who have adopted this dietary pattern. We also explored the role of the individual components of the diet on the specific aspects characterizing the MetS (i.e. metabolic indices, body weight and blood pressure). There is ample evidence showing that subjects adherent to the Mediterranean diet have lower prevalence and incidence rates of MetS than non-adherent. Moreover, it has been widely documented that specific components of this dietary pattern play a role in the prevention of several morbid conditions related to the MetS.
