  1. Adjusted for age (year) and years since menopause (year) education (year), waist circumference (cm), physical activity (MET min/week), dietary supplement use (yes/no), dietary intake of fiber (g/day), energy (kcal/day) and coffee (g/day)
  2. Serum biomarkers of oxidative stress were log10 transformed
  3. DTAC dietary total antioxidant capacity, TAC total antioxidant capacity, MDA malondialdehyde, Ox-LDL oxidized low-density lipoprotein, SOD superoxide dismutase
  4. †DTAC was adjusted for energy intake by residual method
