Fruit intake, genetic risk and type 2 diabetes: a population-based gene –diet interaction analysis

ConclusionsFruit intakes interact with the  genetic predisposition of T2D on the risk of diabetes and related glucose metabolic traits. Fruit intake alleviates the association between genetic predisposition of T2D and the risk of diabetes; the association of fruit intake with a lower risk of diabetes was more prominent in population with a  stronger genetic predisposition of T2D.
