Abstract
AIMS: Recent studies have demonstrated the associations of the consumption of different beverages with cardiometabolic diseases, whereas no studies have investigated such associations in heart failure (HF). Thus, this study aimed to explore the associations of the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), artificially sweetened beverages (ASBs), and pure fruit/vegetable juices (PJs) with the risk of incident HF. METHODS: This prospective cohort study included 209,829 participants in the UK Biobank who completed at least one 24-h diet questionnaire and who were free of baseline HF. Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 9.9 years, 4,328 incident HF cases were recorded. Compared to corresponding nonconsumers, individuals who consumed >2 L/week SSBs or ASBs had an increased risk of HF (HR: 1.22, 95% CI: 1.08-1.38 and HR: 1.30, 95% CI: 1.16-1.47, respectively) in the multivariate adjusted model. An inverse association was observed between the consumption of >0-1 L/week PJs and the risk of HF (HR: 0.90, 95% CI: 0.83-0.98). Additionally, a significant interaction was observed between PJ consumption and sleep duration on HF risk (P for interaction =0.030). CONCLUSIONS: Increased consumption of SSBs or ASBs may be an independent risk factor for HF, whereas moderate intake of PJs may have a protective effect on HF.
