🧬🥗 Can vitamin E intake influence longevity, and does smoking status change the relationship? A new study published in BMJ Nutrition, Prevention & Health analysed data from 30,280 adults in the US NHANES cohort to examine how dietary vitamin E intake and serum vitamin E levels relate to all cause mortality. The findings suggest that smoking status may significantly modify this relationship. Key findings from the study: • Higher vitamin E intake was associated with a lower risk of death among non smokers and former smokers. • Among former smokers, the association was strongest in individuals who had quit smoking for more than 20 years, highlighting the long term benefits of smoking cessation. • No significant association was observed in current smokers, suggesting that ongoing exposure to cigarette smoke may outweigh potential antioxidant benefits. • Higher serum vitamin E levels were linked with lower mortality only in non smokers. • The lowest mortality risk appeared at vitamin E intakes of around 12–14 mg per day, close to recommended intake levels. Notably, only 8.3% of participants met the recommended dietary allowance for vitamin E, suggesting that many adults may have insufficient intake. Overall, the findings highlight how smoking status may influence the relationship between antioxidant intake and long term health outcomes, reinforcing the importance of smoking cessation alongside balanced dietary intake. 🔗 Discover more: bit.ly/46PO642 #BMJNPH #VitaminE #NutritionScience #PublicHealth #SmokingCessation #PreventiveHealth

Could medicine burden be the missing conversation in MASLD care? Our latest blog explores the growing issue of polypharmacy in people living with metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
