Analyses were adjusted for sex, age (continuous), educational level (primary or less, secondary, university), cigarette smoking status (former, current, never), alcohol consumption (continuous), ex-drinker status (yes, no), recreational physical activity in METS·hours/week (continuous), household physical activity in METS·hours/week (continuous), hours of television (continuous), number of chronic diseases (continuous), number of prescribed medications (continuous), energy intake in kcal/d (continuous), very-long-chain omega-3 fatty acids consumption (continuous), and fiber consumption (continuous). PDs: percentage difference calculated as [(5th quintile − 1st quintile)/1st quintile] × 100, p: p for a linear trend. BMI: body mass index, MUAC: mid-upper arm circumference, SBP: systolic blood pressure, DBP: diastolic blood pressure, HR: heart rate. Analyses for HbA1c and insulin were performed in a nested subsample of 1066 participants.
