Filter by:Dose-response validation of whole grain dietary intake biomarkers remains limited, and it is debatable whether these markers could be utilized as classifiers for different levels of whole grain consumption. Because there are significant disparities in genetic background and dietary patterns between Chinese and Western cultures, it is unclear if whole grain dietary intake biomarkers can characterize whole grain consumption in Chinese populations. To address these issues, the current study was designed to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of potential whole grain markers in a randomized controlled trial, as well as to validate the markers' dose-response relationship, so that they can be used in nutritional epidemiological studies and dietary intake assessments of whole grains.
