The association between dietary acid load and muscle strength among Iranian adults.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

There is limited evidence regarding the association between dietary acid load and muscle strength. Thus, in this study, we investigated the association between dietary acid-base load indices and muscle strength among Iranian adults.

Results

This cross-sectional study was conducted on 270 Iranian adults, aged 18-70 year. Dietary acid load indexes, were calculated by using a validated 168-item semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Muscle strength was measured by a digital handgrip dynamometer. There was a significant increase in mean muscle strength of left-hand (MSL), muscle strength of right-hand (MSR) and the mean of the MSL and MSR (MMS) across tertiles of Potential Renal Acid Load (PRAL), Net Endogenous Acid Production (NEAP), and Dietary Acid Load (DAL). Significant linear relationships between PRAL and; MSL (??=?0.24, p?

Project description:BackgroundLimited data are available on the association of dietary insulin load (DIL) and dietary insulin index (DII) with health status in pediatrics. We aimed to investigate the relationship of DIL and DII with metabolic health status in Iranian overweight/obese adolescents.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, using a multistage cluster random-sampling method, 203 overweight/obese adolescents (aged 12 to <18 years) were included. A validated 147-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was used for a dietary intake assessment. Glycemic and lipid profile, blood pressure (BP), and anthropometric indices were measured. Participants were categorized as metabolically healthy obese (MHO) or metabolically unhealthy obese (MUO) using the two methods of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and a combination of IDF with Homeostasis Model Assessment Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR).ResultsAccording to IDF and IDF/HOMA-IR strategies, 38.9% (n = 79) and 33.0% (n = 67) of participants belonged to MUO category. After adjustments for potential confounders, subjects in the highest tertile of DIL in comparison with those in the lowest tertile had the odds ratio (OR) values of 8.44 (95% CI: 2.24-31.78) and 5.86 (95% CI: 1.39-24.58) for MUO based on IDF and IDF/HOMA-IR definitions, respectively. Moreover, after considering potential confounders, adolescents in the highest tertile of DII, compared to the lowest tertile, were, respectively, 6.93 (OR: 6.93; 95% CI: 2.59-18.57) and 5.26 (OR: 5.26; 95% CI: 1.85-14.97) times more likely to be MUO, based on IDF and IDF/HOMA-IR definitions. A significant decreasing trend was observed for OR of MUO in tertiles of DIL and DII. The stratified analysis revealed that these associations were stronger in obese participants; in overweight subjects, the association was not independent of confounders.ConclusionThis population-based study revealed that higher DIL and DII were strongly related to increased OR of MUO in Iranian adolescents, especially in obese participants. Further investigations, especially with a prospective design, are needed to affirm these findings.
