Adding body mass index into the models abolished associations. Of the studied food items, more frequent consumption of ready-made, highly processed foods (OR 1.5, p\u2009=\u20090.001), and fast foods (OR 1.5, p\u2009=\u20090.005) were independently associated with symptoms of stress urinary incontinence regardless of eating style, whereas consuming ready-made foods (OR 1.4, p\u2009=\u20090.048) was associated with symptoms of urgency urinary incontinence. Daily consumption of fruits (OR 0.8, p\u2009=\u20090.034) was independently associated with symptoms of stress urinary incontinence. Furthermore, we observed that daily consumption of porridge was associated with symptoms of constipation or defecation difficulties (OR 1.7, p\u2009=\u20090.010) independently of eating style. Alcohol consumption (OR 0.9, p\u2009=\u20090.015) was inversely associated with constipation and defecation difficulties.
