Results from the NHANES analyses were compared to plasma nitrate analyses of the Health Professionals Follow-up Study (HPFS) performed by our group previously. Results: Both usual and acute intake of vegetables can significantly increase urinary nitrate levels (26% -33% increase of urinary nitrate with increased intake of vegetables from quintile 1 to quintile 5). Recent intake of red and processed meat does not decrease urinary nitrate levels. Usual intakes of red and processed meat significantly reduce levels of urinary nitrate (8% reduction using averaged 24-hr recalls and 16% reduction using non-quantitative FFQ with increased intake of red and processed meat from quintile 1 to quintile 5). The associations of vegetables and red and processed meat with urinary nitrate in the NHANES cohort are very similar to the associations of these foods with plasma nitrate observed in the HPFS cohort. Conclusions: In summary, urinary nitrate is a valid measurement for assessing vegetable and red and processed meat impact on circulating nitrate levels and is consistent with results using plasma nitrate measurement. 2015-09-01 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1427883298 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1427883298 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
