Association between dietary niacin intake and risk of Parkinson’s disease in US adults: cross-sectional analysis of survey data from NHANES 2005–2018 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articl...
"Conclusion: An inverse association between dietary niacin intake and the risk for PD was found in a large cross-sectional study of US adults aged 40 and older. For every 10 mg increase in dietary niacin intake, the risk of PD was reduced by 23%."
Important to note:
Niacin in this study refers to dietary niacin and excludes niacin supplements.
Great catch!
"2.3. Dietary niacin intake
Dietary intake data were collected by trained dietary interviewers using the NHANES Computer-Assisted Dietary Interview (CADI) system. Each Mobile Examination Center (MEC) dietary interview room follows a set of standardized measurement guidelines, which are agreed upon by experts during regular workshops and specifically designed for the current NHANES setting. These guidelines assist respondents in accurately reporting the quantity and portion size of consumed foods."
