Key result
Dietary diversity evaluation for T2D risk lacks primary clinical outcomes in supplementary data.
Why the study?
Does dietary diversity affect the risk of type 2 diabetes in Chinese cohorts?
Cohort (n=8,103)
Yes
Does dietary diversity affect the risk of type 2 diabetes in Chinese cohorts?
Should not change dietary advice for type 2 diabetes prevention; leaves open causal microbiota links from observational Chinese cohorts.
: Higher dietary diversity was associated with a lower risk of T2D, which might be partially due to the combined effects and interactions of beneficial bacteria and anti-inflammatory metabolites. Our findings position DDS as an easily modifiable lifestyle factor for T2D prevention, supporting its integration into public health guidelines.

Zhao et al. (2026) conducted a cohort in Type 2 diabetes (n=8,103). Dietary diversity vs. Low dietary diversity was evaluated on Type 2 diabetes. Dietary diversity associations with type 2 diabetes were evaluated in two Chinese cohorts comprising 8,103 participants, though primary clinical outcomes are not reported in this supplementary document.
