Different Time Trends of Caloric and Fat Intake Between Statin Users and Nonusers Among US Adults

Abstract

Caloric and fat intake have increased among statin users over time, which was not true for nonusers. The increase in BMI was faster for statin users than for nonusers. Efforts aimed at dietary control among statin users may be becoming less intensive. The importance of dietary composition may need to be reemphasized for statin users.
