Associations between consumption of dietary fibers and the risk of cardiovascular diseases, cancers, type 2 diabetes, and mortality in the prospective NutriNet-Santé cohort
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition Jul 04, 2020
Partula V, Deschasaux M, Druesne-Pecollo N, et al. - Researchers used the large-scale NutriNet-Santé prospective cohort (2009–2019) to assess the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), cancer, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and mortality in correlation with consumption of dietary fibers (DFs) of different types [total (TDF), soluble (SF), insoluble (IF)] and from different sources (fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, potatoes and tubers). This study involved 107,377 participants. An inverse link of T2D risk with TDFs, SFs, and IFs was identified. A reduced risk of CVD and colorectal cancer was observed in correlation with SFs. IFs were found to be inversely related to death from cancer or CVDs. A reduced risk of breast cancer was reported in correlation with TDF consumption. Overall, DF consumption, particularly SFs and DFs from fruits, was shown to be inversely related to the risk of various chronic diseases and with mortality.
