Serum high-sensitivity CRP is a marker of inflammation and an independent predictor of chronic diseases. However, the effect of diet on serum hs-CRP is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between dietary macronutrient intake and serum hs-CRP.

We recruited 9778 adults, aged 35–65 years as part of the MASHAD study. Dietary intake was determined using 24-hour dietary recall and several biochemical parameters including serum hs-CRP were measured. Analysis of covariance was used for assessment of crude and energy-adjusted nutrients across quartiles of serum hs-CRP. To find the association of dietary nutrients intake and serum hs-CRP level, we used logistic regression in different model.

Unadjusted and adjusted multivariate analyses indicate that there was a significant positive association between dietary protein and sodium intake and …
