“…The protective role of the MedDiet against these health outcomes has also been shown consistently in several systematic reviews [73,74]. Two systematic reviews [75,76] concluded that both the MedDiet and the DASH diet are effective for weight loss. The large and long-term PREDIMED randomized trial () recently also reported benefits for the Mediterranean diet for the prevention of age-related weight gain [77].…”

Inflammation is an underlying pathophysiological process in chronic diseases, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. In fact, a number of systematic reviews have shown the association between inflammatory biomarkers, such as CRP, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, IL-4, or IL-10, and cardio-metabolic diseases. Diet is one of the main lifestyle-related factors which modulates the inflammatory process. Different individual foods and dietary patterns can have a beneficial health effect associated with their anti-inflammatory properties. The dietary inflammatory index (DII) was recently developed to estimate the inflammatory potential of overall diet. The aim of this review is to examine the findings of recent papers that have investigated the association between the DII, cardio-metabolic risk factors and cardiovascular disease. The relevance of the DII score in the association between inflammation and cardio-metabolic diseases is critically appraised, as well as its role in the context of healthy dietary patterns. We conclude that the DII score seems to be a useful tool to appraise the inflammatory capacity of the diet and to better understand the relationships between diet, inflammation, and cardio-metabolic diseases.

“…A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with durations from 8 to 24 wk showed that the DASH diet can used as a be a successful weightmanagement strategy (3). An RCT in Spain, with a median duration of 4.8 y, in people at high risk of cardiovascular disease has shown that participants who were randomly assigned to receive the Mediterranean diet supplemented with either extravirgin olive oil or nuts had 30% and 28% reduced incidences of major cardiovascular events, respectively, compared with the low-fat diet control group (4).…”

Background: Healthful dietary patterns have been associated with lower risks of type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease, but their relations with intermediate markers of cardiometabolic and endocrine health are less established. Objective: We evaluated the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH), the alternate Mediterranean diet (aMED), and the Alternate Healthy Eating Index (aHEI) diet-quality scores with cardiometabolic and endocrine plasma biomarkers in US women. Design: The trial was a cross-sectional analysis of 775 healthy women in the Women's Lifestyle Validation Study that was conducted within the NHS (Nurses' Health Study) and NHS II longitudinal cohorts. Multiple linear regression models adjusted for potential confounders were used to estimate associations between quartiles of dietary pattern-adherence scores that were derived from a food-frequency questionnaire and plasma biomarker concentrations that were collected simultaneously. Results: In multivariable models in which highest and lowest quartiles of dietary pattern scores were compared, 1) DASH was significantly associated with higher concentrations of high-density lipoprotein (9%) and sex-hormone binding globulin (SHBG) (21%), and lower concentrations of leptin (28%), triglycerides (19%), and C-peptide (4%) (all P-trend # 0.04); 2) the aMED was associated with 19% higher SHBG and 16% lower triglycerides (P-trend = 0.02 and 0.003, respectively); and 3) the aHEI was associated with significantly higher concentrations of insulin (16%) and SHBG (19%) and lower concentrations of leptin (18%) (all P-trend # 0.02). Further adjustment for body mass index (BMI) attenuated these associations but remained significant for 1) DASH with leptin and triglycerides and 2) the aMED with triglycerides (all P-trend # 0.03). Conclusions: Adherence to healthful dietary patterns is associated with favorable concentrations of many cardiometabolic and endocrine biomarkers. These relations are mediated in part by BMI.

“…According to staff reports, approximately 5 % of incarcerated individuals at these correctional facilities are on a special diet plan. Despite high rates of obesity, only a small portion of incarcerated individuals consume a diet proven effective for weight reduction, such as the DASH diet [50]. Because serving special meals can be logistically challenging for Food Services, finding ways to incorporate a diet that promotes healthy weight, blood pressure, and cholesterol into the general population menu may be an avenue for future work.…”

Understanding Weight Change while Incarcerated: Qualitative Groundwork for a Collaborative Health Intervention

Addressing obesity behind bars has increasingly attracted attention from public health researchers and correctional administrators, while still remaining an often elusive goal. Certainly, obesity prevention in any current context has proven challenging [15][16][17][18]. In some ways, addressing obesity within the correctional setting offers opportunities, for example, the benefit of the "captive audience" who may not otherwise access healthcare [19]. Finally, the burgeoning costs of managing chronic conditions associated with obesity in the incarcerated setting further engage otherwise unlikely partners for public health interventions [20,21]. For example, the expense of diabetes-related health care has been estimated at $25,675 per inmate annually [22].A health intervention to address obesity within the incarcerated setting could focus on individual behaviorthrough education, one-on-one or group counseling or other tailored programming-or could focus on facility level change such as impacting the foodscape within prison, or other systemic restructuring. Interpersonal counseling, which has been shown to be an effective means to dietary change [23][24][25], plays a limited role in correctional settings due its high cost. Targeted health education interventions, tailored to the needs of their specific target population, are a promising strategy for addressing obesity in incarcerated populations [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33]. However, few of these tailored interventions have been developed for low income, ethnically diverse audiences and those adapted for use in correctional settings have not yet been documented to effectively deliver on outcomes [32][33][34]. One possible reason for the lack of effectiveness of these tailored intervention is a lack of understanding of the specific barriers and facilitators to healthy weight maintenance while incarcerated. Indeed, new participatory based research has offered more successful interventions [35]. Island, 111 Brewster Street, Pawtucket, RI 02860, Tel: 401-729-3400; Fax: 401-729-2494; E-mail: Jennifer_Clarke@brown.edu AbstractIn the context of the ever-increasing incarcerated population in the U.S. and our "obesity epidemic," recent work has investigated whether incarcerated individuals are at higher risk for obesity and related diseases. We build on this scholarship by interviewing incarcerated men and women, as well as correctional facility staff to parse the barriers and facilitators to maintaining a healthy weight on the inside. This qualitative analysis forms the groundwork for a collaborative health intervention to address weight gain and weight maintenance in a U.S. correctional facility.
