Dietary flavonoids intake was assessed using a two-day recall questionnaire on dietary intake. CLBP was defined based of self-reported question. Weighted univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were performed to evaluate the relationship between flavonoids intake and CLBP. Additionally, subgroup analyses were conducted based on age, sedentary behavior time, arthritis, depression, and sleep disorder.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 3,136 adults were included, and 460 participants developed CLBP. After adjusting confounders, compared with the lowest total flavonoids intake tertile (reference group), flavonoids intake with highest tertile (&amp;gt;170\u2009mg) was associated with reduced odds of CLBP [odds ratio (OR) =0.74, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.57\u20130.95]. This relationship of flavonoids intake with CLBP remained statistically significant among participants aged \u226545\u2009years (OR\u2009=\u20090.52, 95%CI: 0.35\u20130.76), with sedentary behavior time of &amp;gt;3\u2009h (OR\u2009=\u20090.60, 95%CI: 0.41\u20130.86), with arthritis (OR\u2009=\u20090.51, 95%CI: 0.29\u20130.90), depression (OR\u2009=\u20090.48, 95%CI: 0.24\u20130.98), and sleep disorder (OR\u2009=\u20090.27, 95%CI: 0.12\u20130.60).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Higher flavonoids intake was found to be negatively associated with the likelihood of CLBP.
