Lasota AN, et al. – Researchers investigated associations between substitutions of poultry and red meat intake with fish (total, lean, or fatty) and the risk of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Data from a Danish cohort of middle-aged adults who completed food frequency and lifestyle questionnaires at baseline were used to identify participants with valid diagnoses of PAD. Researchers explored substitutions of 150 g/week of either poultry or red meat (processed or unprocessed) with 150 g/week of fish (total, lean or fatty). Outcomes suggested a possible lower risk of PAD in association with substituting red meat with fish (especially fatty fish), although the risk reduction seemed not statistically significant. Risk of PAD remained unchanged when poultry was replaced with fish.
