Regression model adjusted for age, sex, and physical activity. Data are presented in β coefficient and 95% confidence Interval. p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. High levels (↑) of biomarkers (Zonulin ≥ 51.6 ng/mL, LPS ≥ 1.35 EU/mL, hs-CRP ≥ 4.3 mg/L) and high intake (↑) of nutrients (Total fat ≥ 138 g, Total energy ≥ 3236 kcal, CHO ≥ 406 g, Protein ≥ 133 g, Chol ≥ 445 mg, ≥SFA 24.6 g), were considered above the third tertile. CHO, carbohydrate; Chol, cholesterol; SFA, saturated fatty acids; LPS, lipopolysaccharide; hs-CRP, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; LDL-C, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol; HDL, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol.
