You will write a 2-3 page summary on the topic.
– Choose reputable websites (do NOT choose livestrong.com, bodybuilding.com, etc.),
books and/or journal articles to research the topic you chose. Describe background
information on the nutrient/supplement in relation to the population or disease.
o What is the nutrient/supplement?
o What is the relation between the specific nutrient/supplement and the
population or disease state?
– Then find 1 recent peer reviewed journal article (2016 or newer). Summarize the
methods, specific population that they studied, results/findings and overall
conclusion of the article.
– Based on this article and the other reading you did on the topic; what is your opinion
on the conclusions?

Introduction: The associations of modifiable lifestyle risk factors with incident diabetes are not well
investigated in African Americans (AAs). This study investigated the association of modifiable
lifestyle risk factors (exercise, diet, smoking, TV watching, and sleep-disordered breathing burden)
with incident diabetes among AAs.
Methods: Modifiable lifestyle risk factors were characterized among 3,252 AAs in the Jackson
Heart Study who were free of diabetes at baseline (2000–2004) using baseline questionnaires and
combined into risk factor categories: poor (0–3 points), average (4–7 points), and optimal (8–11
points). Incidence rate ratios (IRR) for diabetes (fasting glucose ≥126 mg/dL, physician diagnosis,
use of diabetes drugs, or glycosylated hemoglobin A1c ≥6.5%) were estimated using Poisson
regression modeling adjusting for age, sex, education, occupation, systolic blood pressure, and BMI.
Outcomes were collected 2005–2012 and data analyzed in 2016.
Results: Over 7.6 years, there were 560 incident diabetes cases (mean age¼53.3 years, 64% female).
An average or optimal compared to poor risk factor categorization was associated with a 21%
(IRR¼0.79, 95% CI¼0.62, 0.99) and 31% (IRR¼0.69, 95% CI¼0.48, 1.01) lower risk of diabetes.
Among participants with BMI o30, IRRs for average or optimal compared to poor categorization
were 0.60 (95% CI¼0.40, 0.91) and 0.53 (95% CI¼0.29, 0.97) versus 0.90 (95% CI¼0.67, 1.21) and
0.83 (95% CI¼0.51, 1.34) among participants with BMI ≥30.
Conclusions: A combination of modifiable lifestyle factors are associated with a lower risk of
diabetes among AAs, particularly among those without obesity.
