Habitual coffee consumption and risk of frailty in later life: the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam (LASA).

ABSTRACT: This study examined associations of current habitual and midlife coffee consumption with risk of (pre-)frailty in 1161 community-dwelling older adults (≥ 55 years) participating in the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam.Habitual and retrospectively assessed midlife (ages 40-65) coffee consumption was measured using questionnaires and divided into five categories (no coffee, > 0-2, > 2-4, > 4-6, > 6 cups/day). Frailty status was assessed using Fried's five-component frailty phenotype. Generalized estimating equations, Cox proportional hazards models, and logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the associations of coffee consumption with frailty and pre-frailty prevalence, and the 3- and 7-year incidence of (pre)frailty.Habitual coffee consumption of > 4-6 and > 6 cups/day was
