Association of Home Food Availability with Prediabetes and Diabetes among Adults in the United States
This study examined associations of home food availabilities with prediabetes and diabetes among 8929 adults (20–70 years) participating in 2007–2010 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were estimated by logistic regression. Rel...

description | This study examined associations of home food availabilities with prediabetes and diabetes among 8929 adults (20–70 years) participating in 2007–2010 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were estimated by logistic regression. Relative to non-diabetic participants (individuals without diabetes or prediabetes), prediabetes participants were associated with lower availabilities of green vegetables (OR = 0.82; 95% CI = 0.73–0.91; <i>p</i> = 0.0006) and fat-free/low-fat milk (OR = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.65–0.89; <i>p</i> = 0.001) and higher sugary drink availability (OR = 1.24, 95% CI = 1.04–1.48; <i>p</i> = 0.02), adjusting for age, sex, and ethnicity (Model 1). The associations remained significant for vegetables (<i>p</i> = 0.005) and fat-free/low-fat milk (<i>p</i> = 0.02) adjusting for additional confounders (body mass index, education, Model 2). Adjusting for dietary components did not change the above results (in model 2) significantly. Participants with high healthy food availability scores had approximately 31% reduction (<i>p =</i> 0.003) in odds of prediabetes compared to those with low scores in Model 1. No associations were detected for diabetes except for fat-free/low-fat milk availability, for which an inverse association was observed in Model 1 (OR = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.65–0.99; <i>p</i> = 0.04). The results show prediabetes participants had lower availability of healthy foods and higher availability of unhealthy foods, suggesting the need to improve healthy food availability at home for this population. |
