Abstract
The burden of metabolic syndrome (MetS) is increasing worldwide especially in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This phenomenon can be related to environmental, dietary, and lifestyle risk factors. We aimed to determine the association between the levels of serum heavy metals, vitamins, and curry intake, subsequently predict the risks for MetS by margin effects. Daily intake of vitamins was measured by 24-h recall was calculated using a food frequency questionnaire. Heavy metals were quantified by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry, and mercury analyzer. The risk of MetS was significantly lower in the high curry consumption than in the low curry consumption, risks of Mets were reduced by 7%, 13%, 1%, and 1%, when the levels of vitamin B1, B2, B3, and C intake increased by one mg, respectively. However, risks of Mets were increased by 9%, 3%, 5%, when the levels of serum Pb, Hg, and CRP increased by one unit. The potential health benefits resulting from vitamin and curry supplementation could guard the public against the dual burden of communicable and non-communicable diseases. Further works are required to thwart risk factors related to heavy metals and determine the mechanistic dual effects of vitamins and curry in MetS.
