SD Difference in Physical Performance Measures at Age 60–64 years Per SD Increase in Conditional Diet Quality at Age 60–64 years.

Model	Chair rise speed (SDs)		Standing balance time (SDs)		TUG speed (SDs)
	(95% CI)	p-value	(95% CI)	p-value	(95% CI)	p-value
1	0.08 (0.02, 0.15)	.010	0.10 (0.04, 0.17)	.001	0.06 (0.00, 0.12)	.067
2	0.08 (0.02, 0.15)	.011	0.07 (0.01, 0.14)	.027	0.06 (−0.01, 0.12)	.091

Note: Diet quality defined using food consumption data collected at each age and coefficients from the principal component analysis of the dietary data collected at 60–64 years; estimates represent the SD change in physical performance measure per sex-specific SD increase in diet quality at age 60–64 years, conditional on diet quality at all previous ages; Model 1: adjusted for gender; Model 2: adjusted for gender, age at follow-up, height, weight-for-height residual, smoking history, physical activity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
