Oxidativer Stress und Entzündung als Ursache kardiovaskulärer Erkrankungen

Zusammenfassung

Erhöhte oxidative Belastung und inflammatorische Aktivität sind entscheidend an der Entstehung von Hypertonie und Arteriosklerose beteiligt. Wichtige Bestandteile von Prävention und Therapie sind Ernährungsmodifikation und ausreichende Zufuhr von Mikronährstoffen wie Arginin, Coenzym Q 10, Vitamin D und Polyphenolen. Auch regelmäßiges Ausdauertraining wirkt über verschiedene Mechanismen kardioprotektiv. Die alleinige Senkung des LDL-Spiegels ist nicht erfolgversprechend.
