Overview

Observational study finds improved outcomes for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in older adults, suggesting dietary adherence matters.

Key Points

  • High adherence to Mediterranean diet indexes was associated with 30% lower all-cause mortality risk over 12 years.
  • A two-point increase in the aMED score correlated with a 17% lower risk of all-cause mortality (HR = 0.83).
  • Observed 21% reduction in cardiovascular mortality risk linked with higher aMED adherence during follow-up.
  • No significant association between the erMEDAS index and mortality for any cause, indicating variability in diet index effectiveness.
