保護血管與增加血管彈性的營養品建議

根據美國心臟協會指南,每日攝取25克大豆蛋白(含異黃酮)可改善血脂並增強血管彈性,而Omega-3脂肪酸(EPA+DHA每日0.5-1.8克)則可降低心血管死亡率並改善內皮功能。1

主要推薦營養品

1. 大豆蛋白與異黃酮

  • 每日建議攝取量:25-50克大豆蛋白(需含完整異黃酮成分)1

  • 血管保護機制:

    • 異黃酮可改善動脈順應性(arterial compliance),直接作用於血管系統1
    • 增強血管反應性(vascular reactivity),獨立於血脂代謝之外1
    • 抑制酪氨酸激酶(tyrosine kinase),減少血栓和動脈斑塊形成1
    • 作為抗氧化劑,抑制低密度脂蛋白氧化1
    • 降低低密度脂蛋白膽固醇,提高高密度脂蛋白膽固醇1
  • 重要注意事項: 單獨補充異黃酮萃取物(不含大豆蛋白)雖可改善血管彈性,但無法降低膽固醇;需要大豆蛋白與異黃酮共同作用才能達到最大心血管保護效果1

2. Omega-3脂肪酸(EPA與DHA)

  • 每日建議攝取量:

    • 一般心血管保護:0.5-1.8克EPA+DHA(每週至少兩次富含脂肪的魚類)1
    • 已確診冠心病患者:1克EPA+DHA1
    • 高三酸甘油酯血症:2-4克(需醫師監督)1
  • 血管保護機制:

    • 改善內皮功能(endothelial function)1, 2
    • 降低血壓(輕微但有效)1
    • 減少血栓形成風險1
    • 減緩動脈粥狀硬化斑塊生長速度1
    • 降低發炎反應1
    • 在第二型糖尿病和血脂異常患者中改善動脈順應性3
  • 食物來源: 鯖魚、鮭魚、鯡魚、沙丁魚、鮪魚1

3. 鉀(Potassium)

  • 每日建議攝取量:約110 mmol/day(約4,300毫克)1

  • 血管保護機制:

    • 降低血壓,尤其在高血壓患者和高鈉攝取時效果更顯著1
    • 降低中風風險達40%(最高與最低攝取量五分位數比較)1
    • 減弱鈉對血壓的升高效應1
  • 食物來源: 蔬菜、水果、全穀物、豆類、堅果1

4. 維生素C

  • 每日建議攝取量:200-500毫克用於代謝症候群預防4

  • 血管保護機制:

    • 降低收縮壓和舒張壓(中位數攝取量500毫克時效果顯著)4
    • 降低總膽固醇和低密度脂蛋白膽固醇4
    • 改善血糖控制4
    • 作為抗氧化劑,恢復內皮功能1
  • 安全上限: 成人每日2,000毫克4

5. 多酚類化合物(Polyphenols)

  • 有效來源: 黑巧克力(每日6.3克/30大卡)、茶、紅酒、葡萄、莓果1, 2
  • 血管保護機制:
    • 降低血壓1
    • 改善內皮功能1, 2
    • 改善胰島素抗性1
    • 增加內皮一氧化氮生成1

不建議或需謹慎使用的營養品

維生素E

  • 不建議用於血管保護: 大型隨機對照試驗顯示維生素E對心血管事件(心肌梗塞、中風、血管性死亡)無益處1
  • 對間歇性跛行(intermittent claudication)無效1

銀杏(Ginkgo Biloba)

  • 效果有限: 雖可改善疼痛性行走距離34米,但臨床意義不大1
  • 缺乏大型高品質研究支持1

鈣和鎂補充劑

  • 不建議用於心血管預防: 鈣補充劑可能顯著增加心肌梗塞風險1
  • 鎂補充劑雖可輕微降低血壓,但長期試驗尚未完成1

禁忌症與特殊族群注意事項

大豆蛋白

  • 相對安全: 每日25-50克大豆蛋白已證實安全1
  • 無特定禁忌症記載於指南中

Omega-3脂肪酸

  • 需醫師監督情況: 每日超過3克可能導致某些人過度出血1
  • 孕婦和兒童: 應避免高汞魚類,選擇低汞且富含Omega-3的魚類1
  • 魚油補充劑不含汞1

維生素C

  • 禁忌症:4
    • 血色素沉著症(hemochromatosis)患者
    • 葡萄糖-6-磷酸去氫酶缺乏症(G6PD deficiency)患者
    • 草酸鹽結石形成風險者

鉀補充劑

  • 腎臟疾病患者需謹慎: 慢性腎臟病患者可能無法有效排泄鉀,導致高血鉀症5
  • 使用保鉀利尿劑或血管收縮素轉化酶抑制劑的患者需監測血鉀5

臨床應用建議

優先順序:

  1. 首選透過天然食物攝取(大豆製品、富含脂肪的魚類、蔬果)1
  2. 已確診心血管疾病患者可考慮Omega-3補充劑(1克/天)1
  3. 高膽固醇患者可增加大豆蛋白攝取至25克/天1
  4. 高血壓患者應增加鉀攝取並限制鈉攝取1

重要提醒: 這些營養品的益處需要長期持續攝取才能維持,一旦恢復低攝取量,保護效果會消失4。食物來源與補充劑的生物利用度相當,但食物來源提供額外的纖維和複合碳水化合物,對代謝症候群有獨立益處4
