Dietary patterns influence cardiovascular disease by inhibiting or promoting atherogenesis. Certain nutrients play key roles at different stages of this process, and the combined nutrients of a Mediterranean-style diet offer a significant source of primary and secondary disease prevention. Although current evidence does not support recommendations for or against single-nutrient supplementation, a Mediterranean-style diet should be recommended to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Current nutrition recommendations and mechanisms by which a Mediterranean-style diet impacts cardiovascular risk are described in this article.
