Temporal Dietary Patterns and Frailty in Korean Older Adults: Evening-Skewed and Morning–Evening Eating Patterns Associated with Frailty Risk
Older adults with evening-skewed or morning-evening TDPs had greater frailty risk than those with balanced eating patterns. Optimizing meal timing-by reducing late-day energy loading and ensuring adequate overall intake and dietary quality-may represent a feasible chrono-nutrition strategy for frailty prevention.
