Mediterranean diet adherence is associated with antiviral, neuroimmune, and cardiometabolic proteomic profiles in people with HIV (opens in new tab)

BackgroundDietary patterns can modulate the expression of proteins involved in inflammatory and metabolic pathways in people living with HIV. The aim of this study was to examine whether adherence to the Mediterranean diet is associated with distinct plasma proteomic signatures in PWH on stable antiretroviral therapy. Chronic inflammation persists despite virological suppression, making diet a potential modifiable factor in this setting.MethodsWe included 25 adults with HIV on stable antiretr...
