Preface
Nutrition is the major environmental influence on metabolic systems that impact cardiovascular
health and disease. Past decades have seen major advances in the identification of specific dietary
effects on these systems. However, as this knowledge has grown, and the tools for studying these
effects have become more diverse and powerful, there has been growing appreciation of the com-
plexities and challenges facing those seeking to gain an in-depth yet comprehensive understanding
of dietary effects on cardiometabolic health. Intensifying this concern is the imperative of address-
ing the global increase in the incidence of cardiovascular disease, coupled with the diet-related
metabolic conditions—dyslipidemia, diabetes, and obesity—that play key roles in its pathogenesis.
In preparing this textbook, we have called on the expertise of scientists across a broad range of
topics and disciplines to assemble information aimed at researchers, clinicians, and other health
professionals who have interests in this important field.
The chapters in the first section of the textbook are clustered around the theme of energy balance
and adiposity as they relate to cardiometabolic health. An overview of the regulatory mechanisms
that determine energy balance is provided in Chapter 1 followed by a chapter on the critical role of
behavior in regulating eating (Chapter 2). The debate of whether “a calorie is a calorie” regardless
of food source is addressed in the next two chapters (Chapters 3 and 4), along with methods for
weight loss. Caloric restriction is addressed in Chapter 4 and bariatric surgery in Chapter 5. The
benefits of physical activity on cardiometabolic health, with or without weight loss, are addressed in
Chapter 6. The effects of diet on body fat distribution and the significance of the more metabolically
active central versus peripheral adiposity are the topics for Chapter 7. This section concludes with
Chapters 8 and 9 on nutritional considerations at different stages of the lifespan—in childhood and
adolescence, and in the elderly.
Sections II through IV of the book are devoted to evaluating macronutrient effects on cardio-
metabolic health. In Section II on dietary fats, the effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids, specifi-
cally omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, are discussed in Chapter 10. The role of dietary saturated
fats, along with the need to evaluate them in the context in which they are consumed, is reviewed
in Chapter 11. The effects of trans fatty acids on blood lipids and cardiovascular disease risk, with
consideration for industrially produced vs. ruminant trans fats, are discussed in Chapter 12, the third
and final chapter of this section.
In Section III, Chapters 13 and 14 on dietary carbohydrates and cardiometabolic health pay par-
ticular attention to the role of sugar—consumed in quantities 40 times what was consumed at the
time of the American Revolution in 1776. The quantity and quality of carbohydrates and the role of
carbohydrate restriction in improving metabolic health are reviewed in Chapters 15 and 16.
Section IV’s focus, dietary protein in relation to cardiometabolic health is covered in
Chapters 17 through 19, with a focus on its role in energy balance, skeletal muscle function, and
cardiovascular and diabetes risk.
A renewed interest and focus on whole foods and overall dietary patterns as a means toward
cardiovascular health has led to the development of unique and validated methods of analysis as
presented in Section V, Chapters 20 and 21. The two dietary patterns with the strongest evidence
base for cardioprotective effects, namely, the Mediterranean and DASH diets, are reviewed in
Chapters 22 and 23. Food groups that have been heavily touted and consumed include tree nuts
and dairy foods, and the evidence for effects of these food groups on cardiometabolic health are
reviewed in Chapters 24 and 25. The Section V concludes with Chapters 26 and 27 that present
more debated approaches toward cardiometabolic health, including Paleolithic diets and intermittent
fasting regimens.

x Preface
In the last section of the textbook, Section VI, other nutritional factors impacting cardiometabolic
health are considered. Chapter 28 focuses on the role of nutrition in modulating gene expression
and epigenetics. Chapter 29 reviews gene–diet interactions that may contribute to interindividual
differences in dietary needs and responses. An assessment of the role of the intestinal microbiome
in modulating metabolic traits is provided in Chapter 30. Chapters 31 and 32, the final two chapters
discuss alcohol and endocrine disruptors as diet-related influences on cardiometabolic health.
We are grateful to the individuals who contributed well-researched and incisive chapters to this
textbook. It is our hope that the information assembled here will have value to those who share our
goal of applying nutritional science to reducing the burden of cardiovascular disease.

ABSTRACT
Regulation of food intake is a fundamental biological homeostatic process and is regulated at multiple
levels. The process begins with sight, smell, and taste of food, the act of ingestion evoking either plea-
surable or unpleasant sensations via these routes, which can themselves enhance, decrease, or even stop
intake. Once food enters the gastrointestinal tract, it evokes a cascade of responses to its mechanical
and chemical properties that have the function of coordinating orderly digestion, ensuring an appropri-
ate metabolic fate for nutrients, and activating the process of satiation that ultimately leads to the end
of the meal. This process of satiation involves signaling to the brain via neural, humoral, and hormonal
signals from the gut. Brain signals are primarily detected in the brainstem and hypothalamus, which

contain networks of neurons that are able to respond both to these messages and to important long-term
signals of energy stores, most importantly the fat-derived hormone, leptin. These biological processes
are also sensitive to and modulated by higher brain centers that are sensitive to hedonic signals, social
context, and mood. Ultimately body weight is regulated by the net balance between intake and energy
expenditure, the latter also being modifiable by many of the same neurotransmitter signals that influence
food intake. The system seems biased toward weight gain, as a negative energy balance evokes a strong
corrective response with a drive to increase intake and reduce expenditure; in contrast, the response
to excess is weak and may be more easily overridden by hedonic and other higher centers. This may
explain the difficulty many people have in maintaining a healthy weight.
INTRODUCTION
The mechanism of energy homeostasis is complex and influenced by various factors including nutri-
ent availability and loss, hormone levels, genetic factors, and environmental stimuli. The system is
also set in such a way to be more responsive to energy loss than gain [1], which poses a challenge
in combating the obesity pandemic. The fundamental control of intake of energy/food starts with
the sight, smell, and taste of food, the process of digestion in the gut, and finishes in the brain with
physiological interactions at multiple levels.
The “gut–brain axis” describes the channels of communication between the gastrointestinal tract
and the appetite control areas of the central nervous system (CNS). The gut responds to nutrients and
mechanical stretch by generation of neural and hormonal signals to the brain with its homeostatic
and hedonic regions. Apart from the gut and brain, adipose tissue and its hormones, notably leptin,
play a major role in the regulation of appetite control and energy homeostasis.
The brain, through its hypothalamic nuclei as well as brainstem connections, plays an important part
in regulating energy homeostatic mechanisms and hence is a potential target for drug therapy, although
“off target” effects may limit this approach. The hypothalamus has orexigenic and anorexigenic neurons
and can sense nutrient changes and alterations in the hormonal milieu including gut hormones. There
are homeostatic and non-homeostatic systems involved in appetite control. While the former operate
through the hypothalamus, brainstem, and gut, the non-homeostatic (environmental and hedonic) mech-
anisms influence food intake via the corticolimbic system.
The gastrointestinal (GI) system secretes various endocrine hormones and apart from exerting effects
on several aspects of GI function, the gut sends neural and humoral signals to various brain regions,
which are initially processed in the hypothalamus and brainstem. The gut–brain axis is the two-way
interaction between the gut (through neural, nutrient, and hormonal factors) and the CNS (mainly in the
hypothalamus and brainstem) and plays an important role in the maintenance of energy homeostasis by
the human body. Short-term signals including gut hormones and neural pathways (vagal and spinal vis-
ceral afferents) moderate meal intake and satiation. Long-term humoral signals involved in the regulation
of energy homeostasis include leptin, the adipose tissue hormone, and insulin, the pancreatic hormone.
Brainstem Regulation
The CNS mediates energy balance in the body and is a key regulator of energy homeostasis. The
brain receives signals from the gastrointestinal tract via both the nervous system and the circulation.
Vagal afferents from the gut converge at the brainstem dorsal vagal complex (DVC), composed of
the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus, the area postrema, and nucleus of the tractus solitarius (NTS).

FIGURE 1.1 Links between the peripheral signals and central regulation of feeding. Numerous neural path-

and DVC; signals from mechanical and chemical stimuli from the stomach and intestine initially via vagal
afferents. Signals are relayed to the hypothalamus and appetite-regulating areas of the brain. ARC, arcuate
nucleus; AgRP, agouti-related peptide; AP, area postrema; CART, cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated tran-
script; CCK, cholecystokinin; DMH, dorsomedial nucleus of hypothalamus; DVC, dorsal vagal complex;
GLP-1, glucagon-like peptide 1; LHA, lateral hypothalamic area; NPY, neuropeptide Y; NTS, nucleus of trac-
tus solitarius; OXM, oxyntomodulin; POMC, proopiomelanocortin; PP, pancreatic polypeptide; PVN, paraven-
tricular nucleus; PYY, peptide YY; PFA, perifornical area; VMH, ventromedial hypothalamus.
The NTS is in close proximity to the area postrema with an incomplete blood–brain barrier and also
responds to peripheral signals in the circulation as well as vagal afferents from the gastrointestinal
tract [2]. The DVC subsequently projects to the hypothalamus and higher brain centers [3]. Leptin,
insulin, and glucose-sensing receptors are expressed in the brainstem [3,4].
The NTS in the medulla receives afferent gustatory signals via vagal nerve stimulation (e.g.,
from mechanoreceptors detecting gastric distension and chemoreceptors detecting changes in
nutrient composition and pH). The vagus also facilitates transmission of gut hormone signals
such as cholecystokinin (CCK), ghrelin, pancreatic polypeptide (PP), and glucagon-like peptide-1
6 Nutrition and Cardiometabolic Health
(GLP-1) that are regulated by the presence of food in the gastrointestinal tract [3,5]. The NTS and
parabrachial nucleus in the brainstem innervate the hypothalamic paraventricular nuclei, arcuate
nuclei, and dorsomedial nucleus of hypothalamus (DMH), as well as the lateral hypothalamic area
(LHA), central nucleus of the amygdala, and nucleus of the stria terminalis. The visceral sensory
cortex integrates taste sensation and communicates with the thalamus, which has projections from
the NTS to mediate perceptions of fullness and satiety.
Hypothalamus
Arcuate Nucleus
Within the hypothalamus, the arcuate nucleus (ARC) at the base of the median eminence in the
floor of the third ventricle integrates neural and hormonal signals regulating peripheral satiety and
adiposity through neuropeptide orexigenic and anorexigenic transmission to other brain regions.
These include orexigenic neuropeptides such as neuropeptide Y (NPY) and Agouti-related peptide
(AgRP) and anorexigenic neuropeptides such as proopiomelanocortin (POMC) and cocaine- and
amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART). Peripheral signals influence the activity of these neuro-
nal populations to change feeding behavior and energy homeostasis [6].
The ARC is composed of neuronal cell bodies that express receptors for peripheral signals such as
gut hormones and adipokines and is accessible to circulating peripheral factors across the incomplete
blood–brain barrier and by carrier-mediated transport. ARC neuronal populations are linked with
second-order neurons in other hypothalamic nuclei that include the paraventricular nucleus (PVN),
LHA, DMH, and ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH). From these nuclei, the second-order neurons
project onto the caudal brainstem, cortex, and limbic system.
Paraventricular Nucleus
NPY/AgRP and POMC/CART neurons in the ARC send projections to the PVN of the hypothala-
mus. The PVN is adjacent to the superior part of the third ventricle in the anterior hypothalamus
and the neurons express anorexigenic peptides corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH) and thy-
rotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). The PVN integrates the thyroid and hypothalamic–pituitary–
adrenal axes with nutritional signals, thus allowing for responsiveness to alterations in metabolic
rate and sympathetic activity [7,8]. NPY/AgRP downregulates CRH and TRH while α-melanocyte-
stimulating hormone (α-MSH) increases CRH and TRH expression.
The PVN also contains synaptic terminals for NPY, α-MSH, serotonin (5-HT), noradrenaline, and
opioid peptides and appetite-regulating signals such as ghrelin, orexin A, CCK, and leptin, which can alter
food intake and body weight [9]. The PVN may have an inhibitory role in food intake as hyperphagia is
produced by central administration of NPY into the PVN and by destruction of the PVN [10]. The PVN
has projections to the midbrain, prelocus coeruleus in dorsal pons, and NTS in the ventral medulla [3].
Lateral Hypothalamus
The LHA comprises populations of nuclei that receive projections from the ARC and express the orexi-
genic neuropeptides melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) and orexin [3]. NPY neurons synapse with
orexin and MCH nuclei in the LHA. MCH levels rise during fasting and stimulate appetite [11]. Excess
MCH expression in transgenic mice leads to obesity [12], while mice with MCH deficiency are lean [13].
Orexins A and B stimulate appetite and are produced by neurons in the LHA that project to the olfactory
bulb, cerebral cortex, thalamus, hypothalamus, brainstem, locus coeruleus, tuberomammillary nucleus,
and raphe nucleus [2]. Glucose-sensing neurons have been found in the LHA, ARC, and ventromedial
nucleus of hypothalamus that respond to fluctuations in local extracellular glucose concentration [3,4].
Dorsal Medial Nucleus and Ventromedial Nucleus of the Hypothalamus
The DMH is dorsal to the VMH and receives neuronal NPY/AgRP projections from the ARC and
projects α-MSH to the PVN [3]. α-MSH activates catabolic pathways to reduce food intake and
enhance energy expenditure.

pro-opiomelanocortin; CART, cocaine and amphetamine-related transcript; α-MSH, α-melanocyte-stimulating
hormone; MC4, melanocortin 4.
The VMH has connections with the PVN, DMH, and the LHA. In the VMH, brain-derived neu-
rotrophic factor is expressed and acts to suppress food intake through MC4 receptor activation.
Hyperphagia and obesity have been found in mice with selective loss of brain-derived neurotrophic
factor pathways in the VMH and DMH [3] (Figure 1.2).
