Healthful and Unhealthful Plant-Based Diets and the Risk of Coronary Heart Disease in U.S. Adults
Open accessAbstract
Background Plant-based diets are recommended for coronary heart disease (CHD) prevention. However, not all plant foods are necessarily beneficial for health. Objectives To examine associations between plant-based diet indices and CHD incidence. Methods We included 73,710 women in Nurses’ Health Study (NHS) (1984–2012), 92,329 women in NHS2 (1991–2013), and 43,259 men in Health Professionals Follow-up Study (1986–2012), free of chronic diseases at baseline. We created an overall plant-based diet index (PDI) from repeated semi quantitative food-frequency questionnaire data, by assigning positive scores to plant foods and reverse scores to animal foods. We also created a healthful PDI (hPDI) where healthy plant foods (whole grains, fruits/vegetables, nuts/legumes, oils, tea/coffee) received positive scores, while less-healthy plant foods (juices/sweetened beverages, refined grains, potatoes/fries, sweets) and animal foods received reverse scores. To create an unhealthful PDI (uPDI), we gave positive scores to less-healthy plant foods and reverse scores to animal and healthy plant foods. Results Over 4,833,042 person-years of follow-up, we documented 8,631 incident CHD cases. In pooled multivariable analysis, higher adherence to PDI was independently inversely associated with CHD (HR comparing extreme deciles: 0.92, 95% CI: 0.83–1.01; p trend=0.003). This inverse association was stronger for hDPI (HR: 0.75, 95% CI: 0.68–0.83; p trend<0.001). Conversely, uPDI was positively associated with CHD (HR: 1.32, 95% CI: 1.20–1.46; p trend<0.001). Conclusions Higher intake of a plant-based diet index rich in healthier plant foods is associated with substantially lower CHD risk, while a plant-based diet index that emphasizes less-healthy plant foods is associated with higher CHD risk.
Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
In three large US prospective cohorts, greater adherence to an overall plant-based diet index was modestly associated with lower coronary heart disease (CHD) risk, but the association depended on plant food quality. A healthful plant-based diet index was associated with substantially lower CHD risk, whereas an unhealthful plant-based diet index was associated with higher CHD risk.
Key findings
- Over 4,833,042 person-years of follow-up, 8,631 incident CHD cases occurred.
- Higher overall plant-based diet index (PDI) adherence was modestly inversely associated with CHD: HR comparing extreme deciles 0.92 (95% CI 0.83–1.01); p trend=0.003.
- Higher healthful plant-based diet index (hPDI) adherence was more strongly inversely associated with CHD: HR comparing extreme deciles 0.75 (95% CI 0.68–0.83); p trend<0.001.
- Higher unhealthful plant-based diet index (uPDI) adherence was positively associated with CHD: HR comparing extreme deciles 1.32 (95% CI 1.20–1.46); p trend<0.001.
Methods
- Prospective cohort analysis including 73,710 women in Nurses’ Health Study, 92,320 women in NHS2, and 43,259 men in Health Professionals Follow-up Study, free of chronic diseases at baseline.
- Diet was assessed with repeated semi-quantitative food-frequency questionnaires; three indices were created by assigning positive or reverse scores to 18 food groups: PDI, hPDI, and uPDI.
- Cox proportional-hazards regression estimated hazard ratios for CHD by deciles of each index, with cumulative averaging of diet over follow-up; cohort-specific results were pooled using a fixed effects model.
Limitations
- The paper states that measurement error in diet assessment is likely, although cumulative averaging reduces random errors; residual and unmeasured confounding are possible in this observational study, and modest effect sizes such as those for PDI should be interpreted with caution.
- Evident from the text: the study is observational, so causality cannot be established; diet and covariates were largely self-reported.
- Evident from the text: participants were US health professionals, which may limit generalizability to other populations.

Recommendations based on incremental dietary changes are easier to adopt.
“As recommendations based on incremental dietary changes are easier to adopt, it is important to understand how gradual reductions in animal food intake with concomitant increases in consumption of plant foods affect cardiovascular health.”
The paper relies on this without support.
CHD has a long etiologic period.
“However, these studies have examined plant-based diets at a single time point, making it difficult to fully capture the association of a time-varying exposure such as diet on the development of CHD which has a long etiologic period.”

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Although our findings suggest that vegan diets offer a protective cardiometabolic advantage compared with a healthy, omnivorous diet, excluding all meats and/or dairy products may not be necessary because research22,50 suggests that cardiovascular benefits can be achieved with modest reductions in animal foods and increases in healthy plant-based foods compared with typical diets.”

NHS2 sample size differs between abstract and Methods
MinorThe abstract reports 92,329 NHS2 participants, while the Methods report 92,320.
“92,329 women in NHS2 (1991–2013)”
“92,320 women in NHS2”
Animal-food intake is assigned to opposite PDI deciles
MinorThe Results assign 5-6 daily servings of animal foods to the highest decile and 3-4 to the lowest. The Discussion instead assigns 5-6 servings to the lowest PDI decile and 3 to the highest.
“Animal food intake ranged from 5–6 servings/day in the highest decile to 3–4 servings/day in the lowest decile of the indices.”
“those in the lowest decile of PDI consumed 5–6 servings of animal foods per day, while those in the highest decile consumed 3 servings of animal foods per day.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
