The primary aim of this cross-sectional study was to explore the relationship between FV intake and perceived stress in a population-based cohort of men and women aged \u226525 years from the Australian Diabetes, Obesity and Lifestyle (AusDiab) Study. A secondary aim was to investigate the relationship between serum carotenoids, biomarkers of FV intake, and perceived stress.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"section-paragraph\">In Australian men and women, dietary intake was assessed using a Food Frequency Questionnaire in 1999\u20132000 (n\u00a0=\u00a08689). Perceived stress was assessed using a validated Perceived Stress Questionnaire [PSQ index values ranging from 0 (lowest) to 1 (highest)]. Serum carotenoids were measured in a subset of participants (n\u00a0=\u00a01187) using high-performance liquid chromatography. Multivariable-adjusted linear and logistic regression were performed to investigate the associations between FV intake and perceived stress.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"section-paragraph\">Mean age of participants was 47.4 (SD 14.1) years (49.8% females). Participants with the highest intakes of FV had 10% lower PSQ index values than those with the lowest intake [Q4: 0.27\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.004 vs. Q1: 0.30\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.004 (mean\u00a0\u00b1\u00a0SE), p\u00a0=\u00a00.004]. Similar associations were found for fruits and vegetables, analysed separately. In subgroup analyses higher FV intake was associated with lower perceived stress in the middle-aged adults [\u226545-&lt;65 years (p\u00a0=\u00a00.004)], but not in the younger (&lt;45 years) and older participants (\u226565 years). Higher FV intake was also significantly associated with lower perceived stress in men (p\u00a0=\u00a00.009) and women (p\u00a0=\u00a00.012), separately. Serum carotenoid levels were inversely associated with perceived stress before, but not after adjusting for age and other confounding factors.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"section-paragraph\">In Australian adults, higher FV intake was associated with lower perceived stress, particularly in the middle-aged adults. These findings support current recommendations that fruit and vegetables are essential for health and well-being.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"VIiyi\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"JLqJ4b ChMk0b\" data-language-for-alternatives=\"en\" data-language-to-translate-into=\"fr\" data-phrase-index=\"0\">The year 2021 is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fao.org\/fruits-vegetables-2021\/fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">international year of fruits and vegetables<\/a> according to the FAO.<\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><span class=\"VIiyi\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"JLqJ4b ChMk0b\" data-language-for-alternatives=\"en\" data-language-to-translate-into=\"fr\" data-phrase-index=\"2\">For more information, you can consult the<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/33940399\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> full publication<\/a>.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<p><em><strong>Orchidali offers to<\/strong><\/em> <em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/science-nutrition.com\/en\/#sensibilisation-salaries\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"tlid-translation translation\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"\" title=\"\">organize employee awareness campaigns for a healthy and sustainable diet<\/span><\/span>s.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poor nutritional habits are linked to higher perceived stress, but the relationship between fruit and vegetable (FV) intake and stress is uncertain.<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":3172,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[505,499,27],"tags":[545,43],"class_list":["post-7681","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-consommateurs","category-environnementalimentation-durable","category-recherche","tag-fruits-et-legumes","tag-sante-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
