| Abstract: | Background and purpose: People with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) report reduced quality of life (QoL). Engagement with healthy lifestyle behaviours, including consuming a healthy diet, regular physical activity, and adequate vitamin D exposure, is associated with higher QoL. We aim to assess whether individual lifestyle behaviours are more beneficial to QoL than others, and whether there are additive benefits to QoL by engaging in multiple healthy behaviours concurrently. Methods: Data from pwMS who completed an online survey at baseline, and at 2.5‐, 5‐ and 7.5‐year follow‐up, were analysed. Behaviours assessed were consumption of a no‐meat/dairy‐plus‐omega‐3 supplementation diet, meditation practice, physical activity, non‐smoking, and vitamin D exposure. Mental QoL (mQoL) and physical QoL (pQoL) were assessed by the Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life (MSQOL‐54) questionaire. Linear regression analyses were performed to assess associations of individual behaviours at baseline and follow‐up time points with QoL, as well as between number of behaviours and QoL. Results: At baseline, healthy diet and regular physical activity were associated with higher mQoL (5.3/100 and 4.0/100) and higher pQoL (7.8/100 and 6.7/100). Prospectively, diet was positively associated with mQoL, and physical activity with both mQoL and pQoL. At baseline, engagement with ≥3 behaviours was positively associated with mQoL and pQoL, with additive positive associations for each additional behaviour. Prospectively, engagement with ≥3 behaviours was positively associated with mQoL and pQoL, with strongest associations observed with engagement with five behaviours. Conclusion: Consumption of a healthy diet, and regular physical activity, are both potential interventions to improve QoL. Engagement with multiple lifestyle behaviours may provide additional benefits and should be encouraged and supported for multiple sclerosis management. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
