Association between composite dietary antioxidant index and erectile dysfunction: a cross-sectional study from NHANES.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Individual antioxidants may not fully capture the comprehensive antioxidant intake from an individual's diet. This study utilizes the Complex Dietary Antioxidant Index (CDAI) to evaluate the combined effects of various dietary antioxidants in the diet.
