A dietary pattern high in noodles and soup is associated with higher body mass index (BMI), elevated liver enzymes (AST, ALT, GGT), and higher triglyceride levels in T2DM patients.
High consumption of noodles and soups in T2DM patients is linked to higher BMI, liver stress (elevated enzymes), and high triglycerides. This is likely due to the high carbohydrate content of noodles combined with high fat content in soups. Reducing the frequency of this pattern or modifying the preparation (less oil) may improve these markers.
The 'Noodle and Soup' pattern, characterized by high consumption of noodle and soup was associated with higher body mass index, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, γ-glutamyl transpeptidase and triglyceride levels.
Why this rating
Cross-sectional design; self-reported data; potential for reverse causality (sick people eating specific foods).
