Description
Hong Lin and seven co-authors explore whether eating more thiamine links to lower diabetes risk in a 2024 study. Thiamine is a B vitamin, and earlier work on its relation to type 2 diabetes conflicted. The team analyzed a national United States survey from 2007 to 2020, covering over fifteen thousand adults aged forty five and older.
After adjusting for many possible confounders, higher dietary thiamine intake tracked with lower odds of diabetes. Each unit rise in the transformed intake measure came with about fourteen percent lower risk. The pattern held across subgroups split by age, sex, race, smoking, drinking, blood pressure, body size, and heart disease. The authors caution that a one time survey cannot prove cause.
