In the fully-adjusted model, the biomarker of avocado intake was significantly associated with lower fasting glucose (β = –0.28 ± 0.02, P < 2.0 ∗ 10–16; Table 4), lower fasting insulin (β = –0.31 ± 0.02, P < 2.0 ∗ 10–16; Table 4), and a lower rate of incident T2D (HR: 0.62; 95% CI: 0.57–0.67; P < 2.0 ∗ 10–16; Table 4). Here, INS is linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
