Fructose consumption and its impact on human health: Diet and risk of cardiovascular disease.
نویسنده
چکیده
Segundo a Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS), 17,5 milhões de pessoas morrem todos os anos vítimas de doenças cardiovasculares (DCV), que constituem a primeira causa de morte no mundo. Um dos fatores de risco das DCV é a alimentação inadequada, que tem aumentado nos últimos anos1--5, e várias organizações, inclusive a OMS e a American Heart Association, têm recomendado uma diminuição no consumo de açúcares adicionados na dieta6, o que poderia diminuir em cerca de 20% a mortalidade por DCV até 20207,8. A relação direta que existe entre o consumo de produtos enriquecidos em açúcares e uma maior morbilidade e mortalidade cardiovascular impõe uma necessidade de definir e estabelecer estratégias preventivas que atuem no sentido de diminuir o consumo de açúcares, com especial atenção para as crianças, entre as quais esse problema poderá assumir proporções mais preocupantes. Os açúcares incluem os monossacarídeos e dissacarídeos e dentro dos monossacarídeos mais comuns na dieta temos
