“…This observation was consistent with the findings from previous dietary pattern studies on lung cancer that the beneficial effects of dietary patterns characterized by high consumption of fruits or vegetables were only evident in current or former smokers456910. Smoking causes lung cancer in part through its pro-oxidant properties31.…”

Reducing lung cancer risk by modifying diet is highly desirable. We investigated whether different U.S. dietary patterns were associated with lung cancer risk. Dietary patterns were derived using exploratory factor analysis for 2139 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cases and 2163 frequency-matched controls. Logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). Highest adherence (highest vs. lowest quintile) to the “Tex-Mex”, “fruits and vegetables”, and “American/Western” patterns was associated with a 55% reduced (OR = 0.45; 95% CI = 0.37–0.56; P < 0.001), 32% reduced (OR = 0.68; 95% CI = 0.55–0.85; P = 0.001), and 45% increased (OR = 1.45; 95% CI = 1.18–1.78; P < 0.001) risk of lung cancer, respectively. The effects were stronger for squamous cell carcinoma and ever smokers for the “fruits and vegetables” pattern, and stronger for other non-small cell lung cancer and never smokers for the “American/Western” pattern. Among six genome-wide association (GWA) studies-identified lung cancer susceptibility loci assessed, a variant (rs2808630) of the C-reactive protein gene modified the associations for the “fruits and vegetables” (P for interaction = 0.03) and “American/Western” (P for interaction = 0.02) patterns. Our study first showed that the “Tex-Mex” dietary pattern was associated with a reduced lung cancer risk. Also, the “fruits and vegetables” and “American/Western” patterns affected lung cancer risk, and the effects were further modified by host genetic background.

“…In fact, one study showed that a "healthy eating" pattern that included vegetables, fruits, and low-fat foods was associated with a significant reduction in lung cancer risk among those who never smoked (33). Assessment of diet quality in the NIH-AARP Diet and Health study (N = 460,770) by scoring compliance with any of four common indices (Healthy Eating Index-2010, Alternative Healthy Eating Index-2010, alternative Mediterranean Diet score, and DASH Diet) yielded very similar results (34). Each type of diet offered similar reductions in risk; high dietary adherence to any of the four diet plans was associated with a 14-17% reduction in lung cancer risk (34).…”

“…1 There is growing interest in the development, estimation, and application of dietary pattern indices because of the relation between diet and chronic diseases [2][3][4][5] and mortality risk. 6 From a surveillance perspective, some dietary pattern indices are useful in determining how well populations meet national dietary recom mendations.…”

Introduction Poor diet quality has been shown to increase the risk of common chronic diseases that can negatively impact quality of life and burden the healthcare system. Canada’s Food Guide evidence-based recommendations provide dietary guidance aimed at increasing diet quality. Compliance with Canada’s Food Guide can be assessed with the Canadian Healthy Eating Index (C-HEI), a diet quality score. The recently designed Canadian Diet History Questionnaire II (C-DHQ II), a comprehensive food frequency questionnaire could be used to estimate the C-HEI in Canadian populations with the addition of food group equivalents (representing Canada’s Food Guide servings) to the C-DHQ II nutrient database. We describe methods developed to augment the C-DHQ II nutrient database to estimate the C-HEI. Methods Food group equivalents were created using food and nutrient data from existing published food and nutrient databases (e.g. the Canadian Community Health Survey — Cycle 2.2 Nutrition [2004]). The variables were then added to the C-DHQ II companion nutrient database. C-HEI scores were determined and descriptive analyses conducted for participants who completed the C-DHQ II in a cross-sectional Canadian study. Results The mean (standard deviation) C-HEI score in this sample of 446 adults aged 20 to 83 was 64.4 (10.8). Women, non-smokers, and those with more than high school education had statistically significant higher C-HEI scores than men, smokers and those with high school diplomas or less. Conclusion The ability to assess C-HEI using the C-DHQ II facilitates the study of diet quality and health outcomes in Canada.

Index-based dietary patterns and risk of lung cancer in the NIH–AARP diet and health study

Abstract: Although smoking is the factor most strongly associated with lung cancer, this study adds to a growing body of evidence that diet may have a modest role in reducing lung cancer risk, especially among former smokers.
