  1. OR: Odds ratios, Multinomial regression analyses were adjusted for age, body mass index and family arrangement. *p < 0.05
  2. OR indicate the tendency of participants who consume foods at a frequency of 3–6 times/week and less than twice/week to have prefrailty and frailty compared with those who consume these foods daily
