Discussion

Causal inference reveals Mediterranean diet's superiority in reducing mortality in adults, suggesting inflammatory pathways play a key role.

The Mediterranean diet demonstrates a 12% reduction in all-cause mortality risk, which is the strongest association found.
Causal inference indicates that higher dietary inflammatory index scores increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality risk by 7%.
Multiple mediation analysis identifies inflammatory markers as significant mediators between diet and mortality outcomes.
Findings indicate prioritizing Mediterranean dietary patterns in public health can effectively reduce mortality risk and combat inflammation.

Lin et al. (2025) studied this question.
