Description
Lana Agraib and colleagues check whether antioxidant-rich diets and inflammation-prone diets are simply opposites, in Jordanian adults, in this study from twenty twenty-six. Three hundred ninety-one adults completed a long food frequency questionnaire. From it, an antioxidant index and the standard dietary inflammatory index were computed, alongside a quality score.
The indices leaned against each other as expected. Antioxidant scores tracked lower inflammatory scores, with correlations near minus zero point three five. They explained fourteen to sixteen percent of the variance after adjustments. One result surprised: heavier participants scored higher on antioxidant measures, against the usual assumption that adiposity means a worse diet. The authors conclude the indices overlap substantially but not completely. An anti-inflammatory diet is usually antioxidant-rich, yet each captures something the other misses.
