Influencia del patrón de alimentación y de factores dietéticos en el lupus eritematoso sistémico (LES)

Abstract

In conclusion, the results of the present doctoral thesis reveal that, diet would have an important impact on SLE, which could be explained not only by its benefits on inflammation and the significant reduction in clinical indicators of activity and damage, but also by its impact on lowering body fat and visceral adiposity, both markers associated with a worsened prognosis of the disease. Therefore, it would be important to consider dietary advice as part of an effective management of SLE patients, which would help to improve their diet quality and to practice healthy dietary patterns such as the Med Diet.
