Blood biomarkers of various dietary patterns correlated with metabolic indicators in Taiwanese type 2 diabetes.

Conclusions: Ferritin and n-3 PUFA can serve as valid biomarkers for high-fat meat and fish-vegetable dietary patterns. Unlike ferritin, erythrocyte n-3 PUFA status was related to better glycemic and blood lipid profiles. Our results suggest that habitual consumption of diet pattern rich in fish and vegetables may contribute in part to a healthier metabolic profile in type 2 diabetes. PMID: 31807124 [PubMed]
