Journal Article
Global diet and health: old questions, fresh evidence, and new horizons
2019
Overview
[...]the burden of disease attributable to dietary factors was huge: 11 million (95% uncertainty interval 10–12) deaths and 255 million (234–274) disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs; 22% of all deaths and 15% of all DALYs in adults aged 25 years or older). [...]more than half of all diet-related deaths and two-thirds of diet-related DALYs were attributable to just three factors: high intake of sodium, low intake of whole grains, and low intake of fruit. The relationships between the 15 dietary risks and selected endpoints were based on meta-analyses from populations largely of European descent, with few and sometimes no data from some world regions, reflecting gaps in the evidence base. [...]generalisability of dietary risks and outcome relationships is questionable, and potential heterogeneity across populations is ignored.
