  • THE FRENCH PARADOX: LESSONS for Heart: First Published As 10.1136/Heart.90.1.107 on 15 December 2003
    Coronary disease THE FRENCH PARADOX: LESSONS FOR Heart: first published as 10.1136/heart.90.1.107 on 15 December 2003. Downloaded from OTHER COUNTRIES Jean Ferrie`res 107 Heart 2004;90:107–111 ‘‘Life is the art of drawing sufficient conclusions from insufficient premises’’ —Samuel Butler he French paradox is the observation of low coronary heart disease (CHD) death rates despite high intake of dietary cholesterol and saturated fat.12 The French paradox concept was Tformulated by French epidemiologists3 in the 1980s. France is actually a country with low CHD incidence and mortality (table 1). The mean energy supplied by fat was 38% in Belfast and 36% in Toulouse in 1985–86.4 More recently, in 1995–97, the percentage of energy from fat was 39% in Toulouse according to a representative population survey. c THE FRENCH PARADOX AND CAUSES OF DEATH The first source of error could come from an underestimated CHD mortality. According to this hypothesis, French physicians may not declare all the CHD deaths as CHD. If standardised data— for example those provided by the MONICA (monitoring of trends and determinants in cardiovascular disease) project—are used, the results concerning CHD attack and mortality rates show that France is at a low risk for CHD (table 1). Under certification of CHD deaths in France is a possible bias, but after correction, it remains a low bias. Thus, validated data on CHD mortality and incidence show that France is characterised by CHD risk, corroborating the first part of the French paradox definition. http://heart.bmj.com/ THE FRENCH PARADOX AND SATURATED FAT In correlation studies, measures that represent characteristics of an entire population (consumption of animal fat, daily milk, and alcohol) are used to describe disease (CHD mortality).

    To Drink or Not to Drink? That Is the Question Samer Kanaan, M.D. Goals Review Briefly my credentials and background Heart Disease – The Problem The French Paradox Review Heart-Health Benefits of Red Wine Biology Recommendations on Red Wine Consumption Heart Disease Estimated 80 million Americans have one or more type of Cardiovascular Disease 1 in 3 American Adults Cardiovascular Disease accounts for 35.3% of all deaths in 2005, or one of every 2.8 deaths in the United States. 2,400 Americans die of CVD each day one death every 37 seconds In every year since 1900 except 1918, CVD accounted for more deaths than any other cause. Cardiovascular Disease claims more lives each year than Cancer, Chronic Lower Respiratory Diseases, Accidents, and Diabetes Mellitus COMBINED! The French Paradox History of Alcohol and Health Hippocrates Illustrated the value of wine as a medicine and vital to a healthy diet. Paracelsus (German physician 16th century) “Whether wine is nourishment, medicine, or poison is a matter of dosage.” Thomas Jefferson “wine of long habit has become indispensable to my health” “I think it a great error to consider a heavy tax on wine as a tax on luxury. On the contrary, it is a tax on the health of our citizens.” Louis Pasteur “wine to be the most healthful and hygienic of beverages.” William Heberden – 1786 described angina pectoris “wines and spirituous liquors afford considerable relief” Renaud and DeLongeril Wine, alcohol, platelets, and the French paradox for coronary heart disease. Lancet 1992. Mortality rate for coronary heart disease in France was paradoxical and unexpectedly lower than other industrialized countries, such as the United States and the United Kingdom, despite similarly high dietary intake of saturated fat and the prevalence of other risk factors, such as smoking.

Received: 31 October 2019; Accepted: 10 December 2019; Published: 13 December 2019 Abstract: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is defined by hepatic steatosis in the presence of alcohol intake within safe limits, defined by guidelines of scientific associations (usually 20 g or 2 units/day in women, 30 g or 3 units in men). The diagnosis is usually followed by medical counseling of total abstinence, in order to prevent disease progression. This policy has been challenged by epidemiological studies, suggesting that the risk of liver disease and disease progression is lower in modest drinkers than in total abstainers. We revised the literature on the effects of modest alcohol intake on disease burden. Epidemiological data may suffer from several potential biases (recall bias for retrospective analyses, difficulties in the calculation of g/day), limiting their validity. Prospective data suggest that NAFLD patients with regular alcohol intake, although within the safe thresholds, are at higher risk of liver disease progression, including hepatocellular carcinoma; a detrimental effect of modest alcohol drinking is similarly observed in liver disease of viral etiology. Alcohol intake is also a risk factor for extrahepatic cancers, particularly breast, oral, and pharyngeal cancers, with gender difference and no floor effect, which outweigh the possible beneficial effects on cardiovascular system, also derived from retrospective studies.
