Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of using a whole food plant-based diet in the reduction of cardiovascular risk related to HIV in people who live with HIV infection. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does a whole food plant-based diet, nonrestrictive in calories and low in fat, reduce the cardiovascular risk associated with HIV infection in people with HIV infection? - Does the whole food plant-based diet permit achievement goals in specific metabolic markers of cardiovascular risk (such as Cholesterol, C Reactive Protein)? Participants will follow a non-calorie restricted, low fat, whole food plant-based diet for 8 weeks Researchers will compare standard nutritional care to see if there is a difference in the main outcomes


Clinical Trial Description

The participants in the group within the intervention will follow a Whole Food Plant-Based Diet for 8 weeks, which consists of increasing the daily consumption of fruits and vegetables, including sources of vegetable protein such as legumes (beans, lentils, chickpeas, peas, etc. ), soybeans and their derivatives (tofu, textured soybeans, soymilk), and whole grains (oats, wheat, rice, quinoa, corn), nuts and seeds high in omega-3 fatty acids (chia, flaxseed, hemp ), minimize processed foods and foods high in saturated fat. There will be no caloric restriction, however, visual support will be provided, in the form of a traffic light, to distinguish the frequency with which each type of food can be consumed. A small recipe book will be provided with suggestions for breakfast, lunch, and dinner dishes. Patients will receive vitamin b12 supplements of 1000 micrograms twice a week.
