Project description:BackgroundPatients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), who suffer from impaired physical function and fatigue, may have difficulties with grocery shopping and preparing meals. Also, to improve symptoms, patients often experiment with diets but seldom consult a dietitian. Although this could lead to a nutritiously deprived diet, an up-to-date, thorough description of the nutrient intake in Swedish patients with RA is absent. Here, we investigated the habitual dietary energy and nutrient intake in patients with RA living in southwestern Sweden.Materials and methodsThree-day food records performed at two time points during the ADIRA (Anti-inflammatory Diet In Rheumatoid Arthritis) trial, were used. The intake of energy and nutrients was analyzed using The Swedish Food Composition Database.ResultsA total of 62 participants (50 females, 12 males) were included in the study, where 18 participants completed one 3-day food record and 44 participants completed two 3-day food records. Median (IQR) intake of total fat was above or in the upper range of recommendations (females: 37.1 [32.5, 41.7] energy percent (E%), and males: 40.3 [37.5, 42.9] E%). Median (IQR) intake of saturated fatty acids exceeded recommendations (females: 14.9 [12.5, 17.0] E% and males: 15.4 [12.2, 17.0] E%), while median (IQR) carbohydrate and fiber intakes were below recommendations (females: 41.7 [36.3, 45.4] E% and 17.2 [12.8, 20.9] g, respectively, and males: 38.8 [35.2, 40,3] E% and 18.5 [15.7, 21.0] g, respectively). The reported intake of other macronutrients was in line with recommendations. For several micronutrients, e.g., vitamin A and D, folate, and calcium, median intake was below recommended intake. Vitamin A intake was especially low and did not reach lower intake level (LI) for 14 and 17% of females and males, respectively. For females, about 10% did not reach LI for vitamin D, calcium, and riboflavin.ConclusionWe found that patients with RA residing in southwestern Sweden reported a high intake of saturated fatty acids and low intake of fiber and several micronutrients.Clinical trial registration[https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02941055?term=NCT02941055&draw=2&rank=1], identifier [NCT02941055].

Project description:Dietary guidelines emphasize the importance of a varied diet to provide an adequate nutrient intake. However, an older age is often associated with consumption of monotonous diets that can be nutritionally inadequate, increasing the risk for the development or progression of diet-related chronic diseases, such as metabolic syndrome (MetS). To assess the association between dietary diversity (DD) and nutrient intake adequacy and to identify demographic variables associated with DD, we cross-sectionally analyzed baseline data from the PREDIMED-Plus trial: 6587 Spanish adults aged 55-75 years, with overweight/obesity who also had MetS. An energy-adjusted dietary diversity score (DDS) was calculated using a 143-item validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Nutrient inadequacy was defined as an intake below 2/3 of the dietary reference intake (DRI) forat least four of 17 nutrients proposed by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). Logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between DDS and the risk of nutritionally inadequate intakes. In the higher DDS quartile there were more women and less current smokers. Compared with subjects in the highest DDS quartile, those in the lowest DDS quartile had a higher risk of inadequate nutrient intake: odds ratio (OR) = 28.56 (95% confidence interval (CI) 20.80-39.21). When we estimated food varietyfor each of the food groups, participants in the lowest quartile had a higher risk of inadequate nutrient intake for the groups of vegetables, OR = 14.03 (95% CI 10.55-18.65), fruits OR = 11.62 (95% CI 6.81-19.81), dairy products OR = 6.54 (95% CI 4.64-9.22) and protein foods OR = 6.60 (95% CI 1.96-22.24). As DDS decreased, the risk of inadequate nutrients intake rose. Given the impact of nutrient intake adequacy on the prevention of non-communicable diseases, health policies should focus on the promotion of a healthy varied diet, specifically promoting the intake of vegetables and fruit among population groups with lower DDS such as men, smokers or widow(er)s.

Project description:Dietary polyphenol intake is associated with improvement of metabolic disturbances. The aims of the present study are to describe dietary polyphenol intake in a population with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and to examine the association between polyphenol intake and the components of MetS. This cross-sectional analysis involved 6633 men and women included in the PREDIMED (PREvención con DIeta MEDiterranea-Plus) study. The polyphenol content of foods was estimated from the Phenol-Explorer 3.6 database. The mean of total polyphenol intake was 846 ± 318 mg/day. Except for stilbenes, women had higher polyphenol intake than men. Total polyphenol intake was higher in older participants (>70 years of age) compared to their younger counterparts. Participants with body mass index (BMI) >35 kg/m2 reported lower total polyphenol, flavonoid, and stilbene intake than those with lower BMI. Total polyphenol intake was not associated with a better profile concerning MetS components, except for high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c), although stilbenes, lignans, and other polyphenols showed an inverse association with blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose, and triglycerides. A direct association with HDL-c was found for all subclasses except lignans and phenolic acids. To conclude, in participants with MetS, higher intake of several polyphenol subclasses was associated with a better profile of MetS components, especially HDL-c.

Project description:We assessed if a 17-item score capturing adherence to a traditional Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) was associated with better health-related quality of life among older Spanish men and women with overweight or obesity harboring the metabolic syndrome. We analyzed baseline data from 6430 men and women (age 55-70 years) participating in the PREDIMED-Plus study. PREDIMED-Plus is a multi-centre randomized trial testing an energy-restricted MedDiet combined with promotion of physical activity and behavioral therapy for primary cardiovascular prevention compared to a MedDiet alone. Participants answered a 36-item questionnaire about health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and a 17-item questionnaire that assessed adherence to an MedDiet. We used ANCOVA and multivariable-adjusted linear regression models to compare baseline adjusted means of the quality of life scales according to categories of adherence to the MedDiet. Higher adherence to the MedDiet was independently associated with significantly better scores in the eight dimensions of HRQoL. Adjusted differences of > = 3 points between the highest and the lowest dietary adherence groups to the MedDiet were observed for vitality, emotional role, and mental health and of > = 2 points for the other dimensions. In conclusion, this study shows a positive association between adherence to a MedDiet and several dimensions of quality of life.

Project description:BackgroundUS iodine intake, estimated from the median urinary iodine concentration of population representative data, has declined by half since the 1970s, which is problematic because maternal iodine intake is critical for fetal neurodevelopment. Relying on median urinary concentrations to assess iodine intake of populations is standard practice but does not describe the number of individuals with insufficient intake. Prevalence estimates of inadequate and excessive intake are better for informing public health applications but require multiple urine samples per person; such estimates have been generated in pediatric populations but not yet among pregnant women.ObjectiveOur aims were as follows: (1) to assess median urinary iodine concentrations across pregnancy for comparison with national data and (2) to estimate the prevalence of inadequate and excessive iodine intake among pregnant women in mid-Michigan.Study designData were collected from 2008 to 2015 as part of a prospective pregnancy cohort in which women were enrolled at their first prenatal clinic visit. Few exclusion criteria (<18 years or non-English speaking) resulted in a sample of women generally representative of the local community, unselected for any specific health conditions. Urine specimens were obtained as close as practicable to at least 1 specimen per trimester during routine prenatal care throughout pregnancy (n=1-6 specimens per woman) and stored at -80°C until urinary iodine was measured to estimate the iodine intake (n=1014 specimens from 464 women). We assessed urinary iodine across pregnancy by each gestational week of pregnancy and by trimester. We used multiple urine specimens per woman, accounted for within-person variability, performed data transformation to approximate normality, and estimated the prevalence of inadequate and excessive iodine intake using a method commonly employed for assessment of nutrient status.ResultsMaternal characteristics reflected the local population in racial and ethnic diversity and socioeconomic status as follows: 53% non-Hispanic white, 22% non-Hispanic black, and 16% Hispanic; 48% had less than or equal to high school education and 71% had an annual income of <$25,000. Median urinary iodine concentrations in the first, second, and third trimester-including some women contributing more than 1 specimen per trimester-were 171 μg/L (n=305 specimens), 181 μg/L (n=366 specimens), and 179 μg/L (n=343 specimens), respectively, with no significant difference by trimester (P=.50, Kruskal-Wallis test for equality of medians). The estimated prevalence of inadequate and excessive iodine intake was 23% and <1%, respectively.ConclusionMedian urinary iodine concentrations in each trimester were above the World Health Organization cutoff of 150 μg/L, indicating iodine sufficiency at the group level across pregnancy. However, the estimated prevalence of inadequate iodine intake was substantial at 23%, whereas prevalence of excessive intake was <1%, indicating a need for at least some women to increase consumption of iodine during pregnancy. The American Thyroid Association, the Endocrine Society, and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend that all pregnant and lactating women receive a daily multivitamin or mineral supplement that contains 150 μg of iodine. The data presented here should encourage the collection of similar data from additional US population samples for the purpose of informing the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' own potential recommendations for prenatal iodine supplementation.

Project description:Overweight and obesity are important risk factors for type 2 diabetes (T2D). Moving towards healthier diets, namely, diets rich in bioactive compounds, could decrease the odds of suffering T2D. However, those individuals with high body mass index (BMI) may have altered absorption or metabolism of some nutrients and dietary components, including polyphenols. Therefore, we aimed to assess whether high intakes of some classes of polyphenols are associated with T2D in a population with metabolic syndrome and how these associations depend on BMI and sex. This baseline cross-sectional analysis includes 6633 participants from the PREDIMED-Plus trial. Polyphenol intakes were calculated from food frequency questionnaires (FFQ). Cox regression models with constant time at risk and robust variance estimators were used to estimate the prevalence ratios (PRs) for polyphenol intake and T2D prevalence using the lowest quartile as the reference group. Analyses were stratified by sex and BMI groups (overweight and obese) to evaluate potential effect modification. Catechins, proanthocyanidins, hydroxybenzoic acids, and lignans were inversely associated with T2D. Hydroxycinnamic acids were directly related in men. These associations were different depending on sex and BMI, that is, women and overweight obtained stronger inverse associations.

Project description:BackgroundRecognition of discrepancies between men and women in nutritional intake is important to tackle food and nutrition insecurity and the often-double burden of malnutrition. The purpose of this study was to assess nutritional status and dietary intake of the Lao population, with a focus on possible influences of gender.MethodsDietary intake was assessed in a national cross-sectional study of 1771 randomized participants aged from 1.01 to 89 years, using 24-h dietary recall. Dietary reference intakes were used to assess nutrient insufficiency. Chi-square test was used to evaluate gender differences and multiple univariate logistic regression to examine associations between gender, nutritional status, demographics and nutrient insufficiency.ResultsNutrient insufficiencies were higher among pregnant and lactating women than other adult men and women, especially for protein and micronutrients such as vitamin B3, B1, C and other vitamins. Dietary intake and BMI were similar between men and women; all had insufficient intake of all types of nutrients, except sodium. However, women had lower intake than men for almost all nutrients and age groups. The prevalence of overnutrition was higher among those aged 18 years and over for both sexes. Among adult women (15-49.9 years old) and older adult women (50 years old or above), the proportions were: underweight 8.6% (both groups), overweight 18.4 and 20.5%, and obese 34.2 and 39.1%, respectively. Among pregnant and lactating women, the rates of underweight were 7.5 and 1.4%, of overweight were 17.8 and 27.1%, and obese, 21.9 and 40.0%. Among adult and older men, 3.2 and 8.3% were underweight; 21.0 and 18.6% were overweight and 28.2 and 27.6% were obese. Multiple univariate logistic regressions revealed that the factors rural area, dry season and Northern-Lowland region were associated with inadequate micronutrient intake among children, adolescents and adults of both genders.ConclusionsDietary intakes were alarmingly micronutrient-insufficient. Macronutrient imbalance and double burden of malnutrition were confirmed in both sexes. Gender differences were limited; men and women had similarly insufficient intakes, but pregnant and lactating women were disproportionately affected. Nutritional interventions should also take men and older people into account to solve nutrition problems.

Project description:Understanding dietary patterns is vital to reducing the number of people experiencing hunger (about 795 million), micronutrient deficiencies (2 billion), and overweight or obesity (2.1 billion). We characterize global trends in dietary quality by estimating micronutrient density of the food supply, prevalence of inadequate intake of 14 micronutrients, and average prevalence of inadequate intake of these micronutrients for all countries between 1961 and 2011. Over this 50-year period, the estimated prevalence of inadequate intakes of micronutrients has declined in all regions due to increased total production of food and/or micronutrient density. This decline has been particularly strong in East and Southeast Asia and weaker in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. Sub-Saharan Africa is the only region where dietary micronutrient density has declined over this 50-year period. At the global level, micronutrients with the lowest levels of adequate estimated intake are calcium, iron, vitamin A, and zinc, but there are strong differences between countries and regions. Fortification has reduced the estimated prevalence of inadequate micronutrient intakes in all low-income regions, except South Asia. The food supply in many countries is still far below energy requirements, which suggests a need to increase the availability and accessibility of nutritious foods. Countries where the food energy supply is adequate show a very large variation in dietary quality, and in many of these countries people would benefit from more diverse diets with a greater proportion of micronutrient-dense foods. Dietary quality can be improved through fortification, biofortification, and agricultural diversification, as well as efforts to improve access to and use of micronutrient-dense foods and nutritional knowledge. Reducing poverty and increasing education, especially of women, are integral to sustainably addressing malnutrition.

Project description:One-year dietary quality change according to the preceding maximum weight in a lifestyle intervention program (PREDIMED-Plus trial, 55-75-year-old overweight or obese adults; n = 5695) was assessed. A validated food frequency questionnaire was used to assess dietary intake. A total of 3 groups were made according to the difference between baseline measured weight and lifetime maximum reported weight: (a) participants entering the study at their maximum weight, (b) moderate weight loss maintainers (WLM), and (c) large WLM. Data were analyzed by General Linear Model. All participants improved average lifestyle. Participants entering the study at their maximum weight were the most susceptible to improve significantly their dietary quality, assessed by adherence to Mediterranean diet, DII and both healthful and unhealthful provegetarian patterns. People at maximum weight are the most benefitted in the short term by a weight management program. Long term weight loss efforts may also reduce the effect of a weight management program.
