Total polyphenol intake, polyphenol subtypes and incidence of cardiovascular disease: The SUN cohort study

摘要

Background and aims: Polyphenol-rich diets have been associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, few prospective epidemiological studies have examined the relationship between classes of ingested polyphenols and risk of CVD. Our aim was to evaluate the association between polyphenol intake and risk of major cardiovascular events in a prospective Spanish cohort.
