Objective Aging is a common starting point for many diseases, and homeostatic dysregulation (HD) is an important intervention indicator of aging. This study investigates the association between Tibetan noodle consumption and HD. Methods Using baseline survey data from the China Multi-Ethnic Cohort study (CMEC), HD was constructed on the basis of clinical biomarkers and anthropometric indices. Dietary information was obtained from the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Multivariable linear regression analysis was used to explore the association between Tibetan noodle consumption and HD.Stratified analyses were conducted by sex, age, and BMI to explore the heterogeneity of the association effect. Results A total of 4 485 study participants were included. Compared with non-consumption of Tibetan noodles, a weekly consumption frequency of more than 7 times was associated with lower HD (β=-0.304, 95% CI: -0.593~-0.015). Similarly, a weekly intake exceeding 1 050 grams of Tibetan noodles demonstrated reduced HD (β=-0.130, 95% CI: -0.245~-0.014). Additionally, sex might act as a potential effect modifier. Conclusion Tibetan noodle consumption was inversely associated with HD, suggesting that consumption of Tibetan noodles, a specialty diet, has potential value in improving HD and slowing down aging.
