Dietary Inflammatory Index and Blood Pressure Levels in Mexican Adults.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The relationship between the dietary inflammatory index and blood pressure has been evaluated in European and American populations. This association remains unexplored in Mexico, where outcomes may differ due to the populace's ancestral heritage and its diverse dietary habits.

Methods

Results

In the first approach, we observed a positive association between changes in DII intake and changes in both systolic (SBP β: 3.23, 95% CI 1.11, 5.34) and diastolic blood pres
