Core Tip

Core Tip: Previous research on the composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) and its impact on stroke risk among individuals with diabetes is limited. Our study addressed this gap by examining the association between higher CDAI scores and stroke prevalence. Our findings revealed that higher CDAI scores correlated with reduced stroke risk in this population, indicating that a diet rich in diverse antioxidants may play a crucial role in mitigating stroke risk among individuals with diabetes.
