Carbohydrates related to Heart Disease

Consider that a recent Harvard study followed the eating habits and health outcomes of more than 8,000 nurses over 2 decades. Women who consumed higher amounts of carbohydrates from refined sugar and highly processed foods nearly doubled their risk of heart disease compared to women who ate a lower carbohydrate diet. This latter group actually cut they risk of heart disease by 30 percent on average. At least five other studies—conducted at prestigious institutions such as Duke University and the University of Pennsylvania—show similar results for heart disease rise reduction.
