Association between the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) and telomere length and C ‐reactive protein from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey‐1999‐2002

Conclusion: In these NHANES data there was an association between DII and LTL. This study also provided a successful construct validation of the DII using CRP in a nationally representative sample. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that diet‐associated inflammation determines LTL.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved
