Energy-Adjusted Dietary Inflammatory Index in pregnancy and maternal cardiometabolic health: findings from the ROLO study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Excessive inflammation during pregnancy has been linked to adverse long-term health outcomes for both mothers and their children. One such outcome is maternal cardiometabolic dysfunction. The Energy-Adjusted Dietary Inflammatory Index is a method of scoring the overall inflammatory potential of the diet. Research on how the inflammatory potential of the maternal diet during pregnancy affects maternal cardiometabolic factors is limited.

Objective

We investigated if the maternal Energy-Adjusted Dietary Inflammatory Index was associated with maternal cardiometabolic factors during pregnancy.

Study design

This is a secondary analysis of 518 individuals who participated in the ROLO (Randomized cOntrol trial of a LOw glycemic index diet in pregnancy) study. Mater
