For total mortality, the authors say that "after further adjustment for lifestyle and dietary risk factors, only the association for bran intake remained significant (P for trend 0.01)". Similar situation happens for CVD mortality. After age-adjustment and model 1+2 were applied, whole-grain intake relative risk is 0.70 (0.46-1.06 at 95% confidence) but with lower significance (.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09917531397118353422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30206473.post-69941342836016920852010-08-12T19:36:11.327-04:002010-08-12T19:36:11.327-04:00Dear Jeny, I was reading the study I quoted above ...Dear Jeny, I was reading the study I quoted above and noticed what I believe are a few flaws. Diabetic women in quintile 5 (Q5) were more health conscious than those in Q1. They consumed more whole-grains, but only an average amount of 32.6 gr/day, which is a relatively small amount. They wre not eating pizza every day, I suppose. There was only 10.6% smokers in Q5, and 21.3% in Q1. Women in Q5 .https://www.blogger.com/profile/09917531397118353422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30206473.post-30546614122399447662010-08-10T19:33:58.993-04:002010-08-10T19:33:58.993-04:00The studies that find correlations between whole g...The studies that find correlations between whole grains and better health outcomes are comparing people eating whole grains to people eating Froot loops and Krispy Kremes. <br /><br />Beyond that whole grains are a social marker.
