Dietary inflammatory index and cardiometabolic risk parameters in overweight and sedentary subjects

Nutrition has been established as a relevant factor in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We aimed to investigate the relationship between the dietary inflammatory index (DII) and cardiometabolic risk parameters in a cohort of 90 overweight and sedentary adults from Bogotá, Colombia. A 24-h dietary record was used to calculate the DII. Body composition variables, flow-mediated dilation (FMD), pulse wave velocity (PWV), lipid profile, glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (Hb1Ac), and blood pressure were measured and a cardiometabolic risk score (MetScore) was calculated. A lower DII score (anti-inflammatory diet) was significantly associated with higher high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) and FMD, and lower Hb1Ac and MetScore (p less than 0.05). A lower DII score was inversely correlated with plasma triglyceride levels (r = -0.354, p less than 0.05), glucose (r = -0.422, p less than 0.05), MetScore (r = -0.228, p less than 0.05), and PWV (r = -0.437, p less than 0.05), and positively with FMD (r = 0.261, p less than 0.05). In contrast, a higher DII score (pro-inflammatory diet) showed a positive relationship with MetScore (r = 0.410, p less than 0.05) and a negative relationship with FMD (r = -0.233, p less than 0.05). An increased inflammatory potential of diet was inversely associated with an improved cardiometabolic profile, suggesting the importance of promoting anti-inflammatory diets as an effective strategy for preventing CVD. © 2017 by the authors.
