Dietary index for gut microbiota and DXA-derived visceral adiposity: a cross-sectional study
Key Points
To investigate the relationship between dietary index for gut microbiota (DI-GM) and visceral adiposity derived from DXA scans.
Conducted a cross-sectional analysis in United States adults
Measured dietary index for gut microbiota (DI-GM) scores
Assessed visceral adipose tissue (VAT) mass using DXA scans
Higher DI-GM scores correlated with lower VAT mass
Significant association observed in the study population
Abstract
Higher DI-GM scores were significantly associated with lower VAT mass in United States adults. Prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings and establish causal relationships.
