Resumo

As doenças cardiovasculares são consideradas um grande problema de saúde pública, uma vez que são a principal causa de morte no Brasil e no mundo. Essas doenças possuem etiologia multifatorial. Além da susceptibilidade genética, outros fatores, tais como idade e presença de hipertensão arterial, dislipidemias, obesidade, diabetes mellitus, inatividade física e alguns hábitos alimentares inadequados, são considerados importantes fatores de risco para o desenvolvimento de doenças cardiovasculares. O elevado consumo de carboidratos tem sido associado ao aumento da obesidade, às dislipidemias, à intolerância à glicose/diabetes mellitus e à resistência insulínica, estando, dessa forma, entre os fatores de risco das doenças cardiovasculares. Entretanto, existem controvérsias acerca da influência da qualidade do carboidrato ingerido no desenvolvimento de tais doenças, independentemente da quantidade ingerida. O índice glicêmico é um indicador da qualidade do carboidrato ingerido. Sua utilidade em condições de vida livre tem sido questionada, devido à interferência de vários fatores, os quais são difíceis de serem controlados sob tais condições. Este trabalho objetivou analisar criticamente os estudos que avaliaram o efeito do índice glicêmico dos alimentos na manifestação de doenças cardiovasculares e seus fatores de risco.
