The scientists discovered a vegetarian population in the long run bring genetic variants increase the risk of cancer and heart disease.
US scientists believe that human populations have a vegetarian diet lasted for several generations have brought their DNA that lead to infections. Unwanted mutations inherently born to vegetarians absorb essential fatty acids from plants easier. However, it's the opposite effect, promoting the production of arachidonic acid - increases the likelihood of cancer, heart disease and other inflammatory diseases.
Speaking understandable when they feed on vegetable oils, gene mutation was quickly transferred into fatty acids arachidonic acid dangerous. Dangerous spikes above named rs66698963 and found er FADS2 gene - which regulates fatty acids in the body.
By Telegraph said the findings may help explain previous research when scientists found that vegetarian populations are more likely to get colorectal cancer than meat eaters to 40%.
To conclude, the researchers from Cornell University in the US have compared the genomes of hundreds of population a set of mostly vegetarians in Pune (India) with the traditional meat-eaters in Kansas (US) and found significant differences in terms of genetics.
Professor of human nutrition at Cornell - Tom Brenna said: "Those whose ancestors owned vegetarian genetic signs showed the ability to metabolize fatty acids faster than normal plants.
For such individuals, vegetable oil will be converted to arachidonic acid, which increases the risk of chronic inflammation related to the development of heart disease and cancer do worse. The mutations in the genome that appear long and were passed on the family ".
Worse, these mutations also hinders the absorption of fatty acids Omega 3, a fatty acid that is very beneficial for the heart.
Fasting can cause genetic variation increases the likelihood of cancer, heart disease and other inflammatory diseases but also help reduce some diseases such as diabetes, stroke and obesity - Photo: Alamy.
New research published in the journal Molecular Biology and Evolution explained early, mutation can not cause serious impacts from the industrial revolution, but everything was different. Originally due to have a major change in your diet, it is receding Omega 3 - found in fish and nuts - switching to healthier diets with omega 6 - in vegetable oil.
The change of diet "may cause an increase in chronic diseases in developing countries. The message sent to the simple vegetarian. Use vegetable oils such as olive oil less Omega 6, "warned Tom Brenna. Previously, many studies indicate that each vegetarian and vegetarian net can lead to problems with fertility by reducing sperm count.
Separate research from Harvard University also found diets rich in fruits and vegetables will affect the fertility of men. Caused by eating more vegetables will intake of pesticide residues more, thereby affecting health.
In addition, many vegetarians are struggling to get enough of the nutrients protein, iron, vitamin D, vitamin B12 and calcium which are essential for health. One study showed that vegetarians had bone mineral density (bone mineral density - BMD) is lower than 5% compared to non-vegetarians.
In contrast, other studies indicate fasting reduces the risk of diabetes, stroke and obesity.
