Abstract
Many risk factors have been identified with the progression of atherosclerotic lesions. Of these hyperglycemia, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obesity are amenable to nutritional therapy. Minimal data exist to prove that alteration in these risk factors prevent atherosclerosis in adults and children. This paper discusses nutritional approaches to prevention of atherosclerosis in children.Entities:
