Association between dietary intake of one-carbon metabolism nutrients and hyperglycemia in coal-burning fluorosis areas of Guizhou, China.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

There are limited studies describing the association between dietary intake of one-carbon metabolism nutrients and hyperglycemia. The present study aimed to investigate the association of habitual dietary intake of one-carbon metabolism nutrients with hyperglycemia in a fluorosis area in China, and explored the interaction between these nutrients and fluorosis related to hyperglycemia.

Method
