The term "Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND)" has recently been coined to describe a new eating pattern. Recent research is looking at how this food pattern affects chronic illnesses. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the association between the use and adherence to the MIND diet with general obesity and blood lipid profile.
In this cross-sectional study, 1,328 Kurdish adults between the ages of 39 and 53 had their dietary intake evaluated using a valid and reliable 168-item Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Adherence to the MIND diet was examined based on the components advised in this eating pattern. Each subject's lipid profiles and anthropometric measurements were documented.
The mean age and BMI in the study population were 46.16 ± 7.87 year and 27.19 ± 4.60 kg/m, respectively. The chances of having increased serum triglycerides (TG) were 42% lower in those in the third tertile of the MIND diet score compared to those in the first tertile (ORs: 0.58; 95% CI 0.38-0.95; = 0.001). In the crude model and after adjusting for confounders, lowering high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (ORs: 0.72; 95% CI 0.55-1.15; = 0.001).
We found that greater adherence to the MIND diet was associated with the decrease odds of general obesity and lipid profile. Further study is essential owing to the relevance of chronic diseases like MetS and obesity in health status.
“地中海-得舒饮食延缓神经退行性变干预法（MIND）”这一术语最近被创造出来以描述一种新的饮食模式。近期研究正在探讨这种饮食模式如何影响慢性病。因此，本研究旨在调查MIND饮食的采用与依从性和一般肥胖及血脂谱之间的关联。
在这项横断面研究中，1328名年龄在39至53岁之间的库尔德成年人使用一份有效且可靠的168项食物频率问卷（FFQ）对其饮食摄入量进行了评估。根据这种饮食模式建议的组成部分来检查对MIND饮食的依从性。记录了每位受试者的血脂谱和人体测量数据。
研究人群的平均年龄和体重指数分别为46.16±7.87岁和27.19±4.60kg/m²。与处于MIND饮食得分第一三分位数的人相比，处于第三三分位数的人血清甘油三酯（TG）升高的几率低42%（比值比：0.58；95%置信区间0.38 - 0.95；P = 0.001）。在粗模型以及调整混杂因素后，高密度脂蛋白胆固醇（HDL-C）降低（比值比：0.72；95%置信区间0.55 - 1.15；P = 0.001）。
我们发现对MIND饮食的更高依从性与一般肥胖几率和血脂谱的降低相关。鉴于代谢综合征和肥胖等慢性病与健康状况的相关性，进一步研究至关重要。
