What did studies of low-inflammatory diet find?
4Studies of low-inflammatory diet measured 4 outcomes; the most studied are platelet count (1 study), chronic disease-free survival time (1) and multimorbidity accumulation (1).

Chronic disease-free survival time
upin humans1
Low-inflammatory diet is linked with higher chronic disease-free survival time in humans (+0.81 y (0.64, 0.97) IDI; +0.49 y (0.34, 0.64) EDIP).
“The 50th percentile difference (95% CI) of chronic disease-free survival time was prolonged by 0.81 (0.64, 0.97) and 0.49 (0.34, 0.64) y for participants with a low IDI and EDIP, respectively.”

Low-inflammatory diet is linked with lower multimorbidity accumulation in humans (β IDI -0.033 (-0.036, -0.029); EDIP -0.006 (-0.010, -0.003)).
“a slower multimorbidity accumulation (βIDI = -0.033, 95% CI: -0.036, -0.029; βEDIP = -0.006, 95% CI: -0.010, -0.003) compared with a high-inflammatory diet”

Low-inflammatory diet is linked with longer lifespan in humans (0.80 (0.55, 1.06) years delay in 10th percentile death time).
“multi-adjusted 10th percentile difference (10th PD, 95% CI) of death time was delayed by 0.80 (0.55, 1.06; P < 0.001) years for participants with a low IDI score”

What is low-inflammatory diet linked with?
2Studies link low-inflammatory diet with 2 measures, most often multimorbidity (1 study) and mortality (1).
Multimorbidity

1 study
Multimorbidity
downin humans1HR 0.84
Low-inflammatory diet is linked with a lower risk of multimorbidity in humans (HR 0.84 (0.81, 0.86); HR 0.91 (0.89, 0.94)).
“Adherence to a low-inflammatory diet was associated with decreased multimorbidity risk (hazard ratio [HRIDI] = 0.84, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.81, 0.86; HREDIP = 0.91, 95% CI: 0.89, 0.94)”
