Finally, the substantial decrease in mortality with vitamin E supplementation among the older participants with high dietary vitamin C intake raises the question of whether the decrease in overall mortality is attributable to a single cause of death or a few causes, or whether it suggests a general decrease in frailty reflected in lessened mortality from diverse causes.
Two models were used: in model 1, the covariates were age, sex, alcohol consumption (continuous covariate), smoking (yes/no), physical activity (three classes used as a continuous covariate), fat intake (from the questions on the consumption of meat, fish, pork products, fried foods, butter, cheese, and other dairy products); in model 2, the same covariates as well as BMI as a covariate.

"Meat is out of the question and their calorie intake is drastically reduced," said Zulfia Sabir, WFP's chief in eastern Ukraine.
