TL;DR: Serial cross-sectional analysis of the US nationally representative 24-hour dietary recall data from 9 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey cycles (1999-2016) among adults aged 20 years or older found that from 1999 to 2016, US adults experienced a significant decrease in percentage of energy intake from low-quality carbohydrates and significant increases in percentage from high- quality carbohydrates, plant protein, and polyunsaturated fat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of dairy intake on body weight and fat: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
TL;DR: This meta-analysis does not support the beneficial effect of increasing dairy consumption on body weight and fat loss in long-term studies or studies without energy restriction, however, dairy products may have modest benefits in facilitating weight loss in short-term or energy-restricted RCTs.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A significant positive association between the Western dietary pattern and the risk of colon cancer is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of low-fat diet interventions versus other diet interventions on long-term weight change in adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Deirdre K Tobias,Deirdre K Tobias,Mu Chen,JoAnn E. Manson,JoAnn E. Manson,David S. Ludwig,David S. Ludwig,Walter C. Willett,Walter C. Willett,Frank B. Hu,Frank B. Hu +10 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the long-term effect of low-fat diets on body weight depends on the intensity of intervention in the comparison group, and when compared to dietary interventions of similar intensity, evidence from RCTs does not support low- fat diets over other dietary interventions.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that stratification of type 2 diabetes cases by BMI may help identify additional risk variants and that lean cases may have a stronger genetic predisposition to type 2abetes.
