The purpose of this study is to verify the relation between vegetarian diet and the risk factors of cardiovascular disease. Results were summarized as follows: Levels of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, atherogenic index (AI), diastolic blood pressure, blood sugar and HDL-cholesterol were significantly higher (p less than 0.01) in non-vegetarians than those of vegetarians, but ratio of HDL cholesterol/total-cholesterol was lower in non-vegetarians. The number of subjects with abnormal serum total-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, atherogenic index (AI) and systotic blood pressure were much more in non-vegetarians than those in vegetarians, it were confirmed clearly as the increment of ages.
