Association of diet quality indices with serum and metabolic biomarkers in participants of the ORISCAV-LUX-2 study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Diet quality is a critical modifiable factor related to health, including the risk of cardiometabolic complications. Rather than assessing the intake of individual food items, it is more meaningful to examine overall dietary patterns.

Methods
