A reduction in cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in obese subjects can be already achieved by a moderate and sustainable weight loss. Since pharmacological approaches for body weight reduction have, at present, a poor long-term efficacy, CR is of great interest in the prevention and/or reduction of CVD associated with obesity. Other dietary strategies changing specific macronutrients, such as altering carbohydrates, protein content or diet glycemic index have been also shown to decrease the progression of CVD in obese patients. In this review, we will focus on the positive effects and possible mechanisms of action of these strategies on vascular dysfunction.engAtribución 3.0 Españajournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.3390/nu8060370https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/8/6/370open access612.39616.4-008.9caloric restrictiondietary interventionendothelial dysfunctioncardiovascular diseaseobesityEndocrinologíaDietética y nutrición (Farmacia)3205.02 Endocrinología
