Dietary flavonoid intake and incidence of erectile dysfunction1
(American Society for Nutrition, 2016)Background: The predominant etiology for erectile dysfunction (ED) is vascular, but limited data are available on the role of diet. A higher intake of several flavonoids reduces diabetes and cardiovascular disease risk, ... -
Dietary flavonoid intake and risk of incident depression in midlife and older women123
(American Society for Nutrition, 2016)Background: The impact of dietary flavonoid intakes on risk of depression is unclear. Objective: We prospectively examined associations between estimated habitual intakes of dietary flavonoids and depression risk. Design: ... -
Dietary flavonoid intake and weight maintenance: three prospective cohorts of 124 086 US men and women followed for up to 24 years
(BMJ Publishing Group Ltd., 2016)Objective: To examine whether dietary intake of specific flavonoid subclasses (including flavonols, flavones, flavanones, flavan-3-ols, anthocyanins, and flavonoid polymers) is associated with weight change over time. ... -
Dietary flavonoid intake at midlife and healthy aging in women
(Oxford University Press, 2014)Background: Dietary flavonoids have been related to lower risks of various chronic diseases, but it is unclear whether flavonoid intake in midlifc helps to maintain good health and wellbeing in aging. Objective: We examined ... -
Dietary flavonoid intakes and risk of type 2 diabetes in US men and women
(Oxford University Press, 2012)Background: Data from mechanistic studies support a beneficial effect of specific flavonoids on insulin sensitivity. However, few studies have evaluated the relation between intakes of different flavonoid subclasses and ... -
Dietary flavonoids and risk of stroke in women
(American Heart Association, 2012)Background and Purpose-To date, few studies have examined associations between the wide range of flavonoid subclasses and risk of ischemic, hemorrhagic, and total stroke.Methods-We conducted a prospective study among 69 ... -
Dietary Folate Intake and Incidence of Ovarian Cancer: The Swedish Mammography Cohort
(Oxford University Press, 2004)Background: Mounting evidence suggests that a low intake of the water-soluble B vitamin folate is associated with breast and colorectal carcinogenesis, especially among alcohol drinkers. However, epidemiologic data ... -
Dietary glycemic index, dietary glycemic load, blood lipids, and C-reactive protein
(Elsevier, 2008)Carbohydrate quantity and quality may influence the risk of cardiovascular disease through blood lipid concentrations and inflammation. We measured dietary glycemic index (GI) and dietary glycemic load (GL) among 18137 ... -
Dietary Glycemic Index, Glycemic Load, Cereal Fiber, and Plasma Adiponectin Concentration in Diabetic Men
(American Diabetes Association, 2005)Objective - Adiponectin may improve insulin sensitivity, reduce inflammation, and ameliorate glycemic control. However, few studies have evaluated dietary predictors of plasma adiponectin levels, especially among subjects ... -
Dietary glycemic index, glycemic load, insulin index, fiber and whole grain intake, in relation to risk of prostate cancer
(Springer (part of Springer Nature), 2011)Insulin may play a role in prostate cancer tumorigenesis. Postprandial blood glucose and insulin responses of foods depend importantly on the carbohydrate quality and quantity, represented by glycemic index (GI), glycemic ... -
Dietary Glycemic Load and Risk of Colorectal Cancer in the Women’s Health Study
(Oxford University Press, 2004)Although diet is believed to influence colorectal cancer risk, the long-term effects of a diet with a high glycemic load are unclear. The growing recognition that colorectal cancer may be promoted by hyperinsulinemia and ... -
Dietary intake and dietary quality of low-income adults in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program
(Oxford University Press, 2012)Background: The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) aims to alleviate hunger among its beneficiaries by providing benefits to purchase nutritious foods. Objective: We conducted a comprehensive dietary analysis ... -
Dietary intake of alpha-linolenic acid and risk of fatal ischemic heart disease among women
(Oxford University Press, 1999)Background: Experimental studies in laboratory animals and humans suggest that alpha-linolenic acid (18:3n-3) may reduce the risk of arrhythmia. Objective: The objective was to examine the association between dietary intake ... -
Dietary intake of fish and omega-3 fatty acids in relation to long-term dementia risk
(Oxford University Press, 2009)Background: Greater fish and omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) intake may reduce dementia risk; however, previous studies have reported conflicting results, which were largely based on short-term follow-up. ... -
