Abstract in brief

The study found that traditional Eastern European diets are linked to higher risks of death from all causes, CVD, and cancer, especially among those who follow these diets more closely.
A diet high in lard was associated with increased mortality, whereas eating more preserved fruits and vegetables was linked to lower risk.
These findings suggest that traditional eating habits may contribute to the poor health and high cardiovascular disease rates in Eastern Europe, highlighting the need for improved nutrition strategies.
