Model 1 was energy partition adjusted; model 2 adjusted for variables in model 1 plus age, race-ethnicity, education, income, BMI, diabetes, hypertension, myocardial infarction, stroke, cardiovascular disease, cancer, Alzheimer disease, hormone replacement therapy, physical activity, alcohol, smoking, stressful life events, social support, and energy-adjusted intakes of SFAs, MUFAs, PUFAs, and trans fatty acids; model 3 adjusted for variables in model 2 plus energy-adjusted intakes of fruit, vegetables, legumes, nuts/seeds, and fiber and Healthy Eating Index score. GI, glycemic index.
