Association between frailty recovery and dietary variety among community-dwelling older Japanese adults: a longitudinal study from 2023 to 2024
These findings suggest that sustained dietary diversity may be an effective strategy for recovery from frailty in older adults. Specifically, intake of traditional Japanese foods such as soybean products and "small food add-ons" such as seaweeds and fruits may offer a valuable approach to its management.
