The DASH, pescatarian, and Mediterranean diets are among the best diets for heart health, according to a new scientific report by a committee of professors and cardiologists who analyzed the current body of scientific evidence. The DASH diet scored a perfect 100, while the Mediterranean diet came in at a strong third place. Vegan and low-fat diets tied in the middle, while very low-fat and low-carb diets fell into the seventh and eighth positions. Paleo and very low-carb/keto diets fell in ninth and tenth place.
Cardiologists ranked 10 popular diets based on how healthy they are for your heart. The DASH and Mediterranean diets were top-ranked, with flexible choices and nutrient-rich foods. The keto ranked worst, for cutting out carbs like whole grains and including lots of high-fat animal products. Low-carb, high-fat diets are among the worst for a healthy heart, while flexible, plant-based diets are among the best, according to cardiologists.
