Plant-based diet study for heart disease
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether switching to a defined plant-based diet can help people with heart disease. It aims to see if this diet improves heart health markers and how you feel.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have coronary artery disease (a heart condition confirmed by a doctor or test).
- You must be a new patient (not already being seen for this study).
- You cannot currently use tobacco (including smoking or vaping).
- You should not drink more than 2 glasses of wine (women) or 1 glass (men) per day.
- You cannot have cancer, an active infection, or serious kidney problems (eGFR below 30).

This study looks at the health outcomes of people with common heart conditions like coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, heart failure, or cardiomyopathy. It may help researchers understand how these conditions progress and how to better manage them.
This feasibility study looks at how to support decision-making about preventing heart problems in adults after a cancer diagnosis. It may help by making it easier to assess cardiovascular risk and start appropriate heart-protection planning earlier.
This study looks at how blood vessel aging relates to the type of fatty buildup in your arteries that can cause heart attacks. If you've had a recent heart attack, chest pain (angina), or minor artery disease and do not have advanced heart failure, kidney failure, active cancer, or prior bypass surgery, you may be able to join.
This study tests whether eating more plant-based foods improves your gut bacteria, digestion, and heart health markers. You'll follow a structured diet plan for several weeks while providing blood, stool, and urine samples to measure changes.
This study tests if adding plant oils to a healthy diet can improve cholesterol and other heart health markers in people with moderately high cholesterol. It involves following a specific meal plan and having your health monitored over several weeks.
This study checks whether eating more protein affects atherosclerosis, which is plaque buildup in artery walls. It may help researchers understand if a high-protein approach changes health markers linked to heart disease.
