Reduce the risk of aneurysm with fruit

A diet rich in fruit may reduce the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Eating more fruit helps reduce the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm

The aorta is the main artery of the body, starting from the heart, going through the chest to the abdomen. An abdominal aortic aneurysm is a dilation of the abdominal part of the aorta. If not monitored and treated properly, the aneurysm will grow larger, leading to a higher risk of rupture, if ruptured, it will cause a lot of blood loss and lead to death.

In a new study published in the journal Circulation, researchers analyzed more than 80,000 Swedish people aged 46 to 84 over a 13-year period. During the study period, 1,100 participants developed aortic aneurysms, and 222 of them ruptured.

After examining the eating habits of the study participants, researchers found that those who ate two servings of fruit a day had a 25% lower risk of developing an aortic aneurysm and a 43% lower risk of abdominal aortic rupture than those who ate one serving of fruit.

According to researchers, antioxidants in fruits can fight inflammation and prevent the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Dr. Otto Stackellberg, works at the Institute of Environmental Medicine at the Karolinska Institutet inStockholm“Consuming a lot of fruit helps the body prevent many diseases related to blood vessels, especially bringing significant benefits in reducing the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm,” said Dr.
