Fiber intake and total and cause-specific mortality in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort

TL;DR: Higher fiber intake is associated with lower mortality, particularly from circulatory, digestive, and non-CVD noncancer inflammatory diseases, and current recommendations of high dietary fiber intake for health maintenance are supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma and dietary carotenoid, retinol and tocopherol levels and the risk of gastric adenocarcinomas in the European prospective investigation into cancer and nutrition

TL;DR: Results show that higher plasma concentrations of some carotenoids, retinol and α-tocopherol are associated with reduced risk of GC, and in the diffuse histological subtype, an inverse association was observed with the highest vs lowest quartile of lipid-unadjusted α-ocopherol.
Journal ArticleDOI
