Sumario:Cerebrovascular diseases represent 2nd leading cause of death worldwide. Understanding how genetic predispositions and their interaction with environmental factors affect cerebrovascular diseases is fundamental for prevention, diagnosis and for the development of safe and efficient therapies. Cerebrovascular diseases have not only a very high mortality rate, but also results in debilitating neurological impairments or permanent disability in survivors associated with huge economic losses. Among the women and men individuals with a low-risk lifestyle (smoking, exercising daily, consuming a prudent diet including moderate alcohol and having a healthy weight during mid-life) had a significantly lower risk of stroke than individuals without a low-risk lifestyle. Current review focuses on determining the relationship between diet, as an important component of ‘life style’, aging and cerebrovascular diseases.This review may help to unravel biological mechanisms linking lifestyle, diet-induced, metabolic inflammation, aging and cerebral hypoperfusion to development of cerebrovascular diseases, a prerequisite for development of science-based preventive strategies needed to combat the major public health challenges like obesity and stroke.
