Background: The effects of consumption of nutrients on coronary artery disease (CAD) are widely observed. The aim of this study is to assess the exclusive Iranian dietary pattern on coronary artery diseases (CAD) and its risk factors. Methods: In this description-cross sectional study, 801 inhabitants of Borujerd City were included by random stratification method and a questionnaire regarding micro- and macronutrients for subjects over 35 years old from March 2011 to February 2012 was filed out. Of all the subjects consent to participate were prepared by volunteers. The complete description and a standard questionnaire to record demographic and socioeconomic status of people were taken. The prevalence of coronary artery disease and its risk factors determined Based on rose questionnaire and Monica questionnaire respectively. Results: In this study mean age of the subjects were 54.8±1.2 years, 388 male and 413 female. There was no meaningful relation between red meat consumption and coronary artery disease (P= 0.117). Nut consumption was higher in patients with CAD (P= 0.028). Use of fresh and cooked vegetables, dried fruit, animal oils cakes, french fries and some dairies are correlated with CAD (P< 0.05). However, artificially flavored soda in contrast to ordinary soda was not associated with coronary artery disease. Conclusion: Although there are some differences between dietary pattern in patient with coronary artery disease, nutritional attitudes are not significantly different in normal and CAD patients. However, according to the importance of diet in CAD, balancing these attitudes should be on the educational system high priority.
