Dietary Micronutrient Intake of Participants in a 'Partners Together in Health' Cardiac Rehabilitation Intervention

摘要

Purpose: Current guidelines for cardiovascular health emphasize a dietary pattern approach that could be expected to increase intakes of micronutrients in addition to altering the macronutrient profile. However, the effect of interventions such as cardiac rehabilitation on the micronutrient quality of the diet has not been evaluated. Therefore, the goal of this study was to investigate changes in micronutrient intake of cardiac rehabilitation participants over time.
