New England Journal of Medicine study on Mediterranean diets, results after 4.8 years: 3 diets: 1 control diet (nothing done), 2 med diet with extra virgin olive oil, 3 med diet with nuts. Heart attacks: 1-38, 2-37, 3-31. Strokes: 1-58, 2-49, 3-32 Death from cardio-causes: 1-30, 2-31, 3-26. These results are being "hailed" as proof that a diet with olive oil, or nuts is protective against heart disease and stroke. It is nothing to boast about. It is why Dr. Eselstyn is so upset, since the diet does not produce major results. His diet worked, while this one did little if anything for the participants to improve their odds. heartattackproof/spanish_study.htm
