Choice of vegetarian options on the menu is a shortcut to a healthy heart '

Tracy Parker British Heart Foundation

Dr Francesca Crowe said: "The key message is that diet is an important factor in heart health, I am not advocating that everyone eat a vegetarian diet.

"Most diets are completely different. Vegetarians probably have a lower intake of saturated fat so you know there is a lower risk of heart disease."

The results showed that vegetarians had lower blood pressure, lower levels of "bad" cholesterol and were more likely to have a healthy weight.

Tracy Parker, of the British Heart Foundation, said: "This research reminds us that we should try to eat a balanced and varied diet - this includes meat or not.

"But remember, to choose the vegetarian option on the menu is a shortcut to a healthy heart. After all, there is still plenty of food suitable for vegetarians that are high in saturated fat and salt.

"If you are thinking of switching to a vegetarian diet, be sure to plan your meals carefully to replace the loss of vitamins and minerals, such as iron, which normally get from meat."
