How to eliminate 50 percent of all coronary events

By Dr. Barry Sears, founders of zone diet

The European Society of Cardiology estimates a 50 percent reduction of coronaryevents if you can stabilize soft, vulnerable plaques (1). We are often led to believethat plaques you can see on an angiogram are killer plaques. Its true that if they

are large enough to obstruct blood flow, they will decrease oxygen transfer to theheart muscle cells making them more tired with less effort.

This is the definition of stable angina. It simply means it takes less effort to over-exert the heart muscles before they fatigue. However, you need approximately a 90

percent total obstruction of the blood vessel to develop stable angina. Theseplaques account for most of the plaques you might find in an angiogram. This iswhy if you take an angiogram, you are often immediately wheeled into theoperating room to have a stent put into the artery with the belief you are only

seconds away from an immediate heart attack and death.However, the same angiogram cant see a few plaques (because they are so small),known as the soft, vulnerable ones. When soft, vulnerable plaques rupture (like a

pimple), then you have the death and disability (i.e., damaged heart tissue) that

truly characterize heart disease. Technically, this is called an acute coronary event,and it has very little to do with the stable plaques that can cause angina. It is this

small number of rogue soft, vulnerable plaques that are the true killers in heartdisease (2,3).

The ultimate cause of plaque rupture is cellular inflammation inside the plaque.

Cellular inflammation degrades the fibrous external coating of the plaque. Usuallyinside these soft, vulnerable plaques are also a lot of macrophages engorged withlipids. This is called the necrotic core. When the plaque bursts, these lipid pools

are released into the bloodstream causing platelet aggregation and the rapid

blockage of the artery resulting in a complete restriction of blood flow (as opposed

to a limited restriction of blood flow with a typical stable plaque that will neverrupture). It is estimated that about 75 percent of all coronary events are caused byruptures of the soft, vulnerable plaques (2).

As I mentioned above, the really scary part of this story is that there is no type ofimaging technology that can detect dangerous soft, vulnerable plaques. In essence,you dont know if you have them or not. This is why the prediction of impeding

cardiovascular events remains a guessing game. Even more interesting is that

these soft, vulnerable plaques seem to form rather quickly (in about 10 years) asopposed to growing slowly over a lifetime (4). Moreover, the rate of growth of

these soft, vulnerable plaques is strongly correlated with increasing insulin levelsin the blood (4).

So what does this mean for people who dont want to die from a sudden rupture of

soft, vulnerable plaques that cant be detected? The first thing is to reduce theinflammation within the plaque. Surprisingly, there is only one clinical study that

has ever been published that addressed this question, and it used fish oil (5). Thisstudy indicated that if you give patients relatively high doses of fish oil, you could

see a definite remodeling of the soft, vulnerable plaques in about 40 days

compared to subjects taking a placebo composed of safflower oil. The plaques inthe subjects taking the fish oil became less inflamed, had higher levels of omega-3fatty acids, fewer macrophages and more well-formed fibrous caps compared to

those taking the placebo. So taking a therapeutic level of fish oil for a lifetime

seems to be a good way to reduce the rupture of these plaques.Another way to potentially reduce their formation in the first place is lower insulin

levels. The reason insulin levels are elevated is because organs, such as the adiposetissue, the liver and the muscles, are also inflamed (6). The best way to reduce that

systemic inflammation is to follow the anti-inflammatory diet and take therapeutic

levels of fish oil for a lifetime. Your success is best measured by the AA/EPA ratioin the blood. Call me crazy, but I think thats what I have been recommending for

the past 16 years (7).

Prepare a Little presentation about the following text of Dr. Sears

Changing gene expression

I have often stated that the real power of the Zone Diet is to change geneexpression, especially the expression of anti-inflammatory genes. What I never

realized is how rapid gene expression could occur. Now, new research from

Norway gives me the answer (1). It takes about 24 hours!This pilot study is on the effect of diet on gene expression in healthy obeseindividuals. Interestingly, when the researchers calculated the estimated daily

calorie requirements for these subjects necessary to maintain their weight, theywere surprised that they were already eating 250 fewer calories per day thanpredicted to maintain their current weight. So much for the fact that obese

individuals are fat because they eat more calories than they need to maintain their

weight. In fact, this observation was confirmed in an earlier study in which thenumber of calories consumed by obese and lean individuals did not vary, but the

obese individuals consumed fewer meals consisting of larger servings (2).So what the Norwegian researchers did was simply maintain the same number of

calories the subjects were already eating and change the macronutrient balance tobe very close to the Zone Diet (30 percent carbohydrates, 30 percent protein, and40 percent fat). Then the subjects consumed six meals containing about 460

calories evenly spaced throughout the day so that the total calories consumed at

any one time was moderate. Just making those two simple dietary changes resultedin more than an eight-poundweight lossin 28 days. The levels of body fat didnt

change since the number of calories consumed was exactly the same as they werepreviously consuming. However, it appears that evenly spacing the meals andreducing the calorie size of the meals resulted in less insulin production and

therefore less retained water.Then they looked to see if they could find any changes in gene expression in both

the fat cells and the blood with the dietary changes. Amazingly they founddramatic changes in only 24 hours. Of the 16,000 genes they could identify, about

60 percent remained unchanged in their expression, but 40 percent were eitherturned on (i.e., up-regulated) or turned down (i.e., down-regulated). Interestingly,

the changes seen in the first 24 hours were held constant throughout the 28 daysof the experiment.

Upon further analysis, the up-regulated genes corresponded to those that had anti-

inflammatory properties, and the down-regulated genes were those associatedwith chronic disease conditions, such asdiabetesandheart disease. Furthermore,

since these changes in gene expression occurred within 24 hours of the dietary

change, they could not be attributed to any change in body weight and fat loss.

Fortunately, I had the opportunity to have dinner with the lead author of the study

to discuss her work while I was in Europe last week. She told me that she hasexpanded the number of subjects in several new trials, and the results remain thesame. I also found out that she has been following my work for many years.

This type of study only confirms the power of genetic analysis to demonstrate how

a highly structured diet with the correct macronutrient content can rapidly altergenetic expression and hence controls your future health. But the door swings both

ways. An unbalanced diet will have just the opposite genetic effects. While I havealways been impressed by the power of the Zone Diet, this new experimental data

takes my respect for the Zone Diet to a new level of awe, even by me.

NFPAHAZARD RATING SYSTEM

Northeastern University's laboratory doors are posted with emergencyinformation to warn occupants and The Boston Fire Department personel of thepresence and identification of hazardous materials inside each laboratory. The

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has developed a system for indicating

the health, flammability, reactivity and special hazards for many common

chemicals through use of the NFPA 704 Diamond. The hazard rating for thelaboratory is determined by looking at all the chemicals, gases and special lab usesin the laboratory and coming up with a rating for each hazard category based on

criteria established below.

Please read the rating information in each catergory, take an inventory of yourlaboratory and rate each category accordingly. To look up a rating for a particular

chemical click on the link at the bottom of the page. If you do not find the chemicallisted, a review of the chemicals MSDS sheet may help you rate the chemical in

question. To look up a chemicals MSDS click on the "MSDS" link at the bottom of
