Nutritional status, alcohol-tobacco consumption behaviour and cognitive decline among older adults in India

Junaid Khan

Summary: This study utilizes data from India's Longitudinal Aging Study in 2017-2018 to examine the cognition capacity of older adults aged 45 and above. The findings suggest that older age is associated with a higher risk of low cognition, particularly among those aged 65 and above. Underweight older adults are also more likely to experience low cognition. Furthermore, older adults who consume both alcohol and tobacco are more prone to low cognition with increasing age.

Malnutrition in Older Adults-Recent Advances and Remaining Challenges

Kristina Norman et al.

Summary: Malnutrition in older adults is a challenging health concern associated with increased mortality, physical decline, and disease.

The Utility of Body Composition Assessment in Nutrition and Clinical Practice: An Overview of Current Methodology

Clifton J. Holmes et al.

Summary: Body composition is crucial for maintaining good general health and longevity, influenced by genetics, environment, and lifestyle choices. As individuals age, there is a natural increase in fat mass along with a decline in lean mass, leading to higher risks of cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, cancer, and premature death. Healthcare professionals must have a critical understanding of body composition assessment methods and their strengths and limitations.
