3. 'Youth is fair, a graceful stag,
Leaping playing in the park;
Age is grey, a toothless hag,
Stumbling in the dark'.
4. Health Challenges in an Ageing
Population
Thirty percent of older people are ‘frail’ and at high
risk of age-related disease in which malnutrition is a
factor.
Muscle wasting (sarcopenia) is a serious cause of
loss of independence and disability.
Cognitive decline is more likely to affect the frail.
Movement and good nutrition are critical for
successful ageing.

6. Ageing
Human ageing, physiological changes that take
place in the human body leading to senescence, the
decline of biological functions and of the ability to
adapt to metabolic stress.
The process of ageing brings about physiological,
psychological, and immunological changes which
influence the nutritional requirements.
11. Genetic Cellular Theories
DNA Damage Theory Error Theory
Damage to the DNA
molecules
Exposure to radiation or
harmful cellular
mutations
Errors in RNA
transmission
RNA molecules are
relatively unstable and
formed continuously
12. Non-Genetic Cellular Theories
Wear & Tear Theory Accumulation Theory
Progressive cell
damage caused by the
internal and external
environment
With the passage of
time, changes occur in
the cells that impair
their effectiveness
Accumulation of various
harmful substances in
the cells
Older cells contain a
dark colored, insoluble
substance called
“Lipofuscin”
13. Non-Genetic Cellular Theories
Cross Linkage Theory Free Radical Theory
Proteins, DNA and other
structural molecules
develop cross-links to
one another
Inhibits the activity of
the enzymes
Free radicals attack the
structure of our cell
membranes, creating
metabolic waste
products
Interfere with the cells
ability to repair and
reproduce themselves
14. Physiological System Theories
Immunological Theory Neuroendocrine Theory
Defines ageing as a
disease of the immune
system
The body loses its
ability to distinguish
between foreign
agents/antigens and
necessary body cells
A drop in hormone
production, causes a
decline in our body's
ability to repair and
regulate itself
21. Effect on Food Pattern
Some of the physical changes of ageing affect food
patterns.
For example, secretion of digestive juices and
motility of gastrointestinal muscles gradually
diminish, causing decreased absorption and use of
nutrients. Decreased taste, smell and vision also
affect appetite and reduce food intake.
26. Astaxanthin
6000 times stronger than Vitamin C
800 times stronger than CoQ10
500 times stronger than Vitamin E
75 times stronger than Lipoic Acid
40 times stronger than β-carotene
17 times more potent than resveratrol
DNA-protective capabilities
Potent anti-inflammatory
Cannot function as a pro-oxidant
Protects complete cell
Alleviates sore joints and muscles
Boost immune system
Helps blood pressure
Helps cardiovascular system
Reduces lactic acid
most POTENT and BENEFICIAL antioxidants
27. Ubiquinol
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)
Used by every cell in your body
Recycles other antioxidants, such as vitamin C and
E.
Reduces DNA damage
Beneficial to heart health
Helps in fatigue and weakness
28. Probiotics
Natural defense system.
You can use a probiotic supplement, but getting your
probiotics from food is definitely better as you can
consume far more beneficial bacteria, in many cases
up to 100X more.
Fermented vegetables are an excellent alternative
as they are both delicious and simple to make.
29. Those who have an omega-3 index of less than four
percent age much faster than those with indexes
above eight percent.
Activating telomerase, which, again, has been
shown to be able to actually reverse telomere
shortening.
30. Vitamin K2
In 2004, the Rotterdam Study,
showed that people who consume
45 mcg of K2 daily live seven
years longer
31. Magnesium
Plays an important role in DNA
replication, repair, and RNA synthesis
The lack of magnesium ions has a
negative influence on genome
integrity, reduce body's ability to repair
damaged DNA, and can induce
chromosomal abnormalities.
32. Polyphenols
Potent antioxidant compounds in plant foods
Grapes(Resveratrol): penetrates
in cell’s center, activates sirtuin 1
gene and repairs DNA
Cocoa: benefits glucose
metabolism, blood pressure and
cardiovascular health
Green Tea( Epigallocatechin
Gallate): anti carcinogenic
properties
33. Folate
Maintenance of DNA integrity and DNA methylation
Deficiency can lead to elevated homocysteine levels
Eat plenty of fresh, raw, organic leafy green
vegetables, and beans
34. Vitamin B12
Required for: energy production, blood formation,
DNA synthesis, and myelin formation.
Animal tissues, including foods like beef and beef
liver, lamb, snapper, venison, salmon, shrimp,
scallops, poultry and eggs.
Energy Vitamin…..
35. Curcumin
The active ingredient in the spice turmeric
An immune booster and potent anti-inflammatory.
Turmeric extract with at least 95 percent
curcuminoids that contains only 100 percent certified
organic ingredients.
36. Vitamin
Telomere length is positively
associated with dietary intake of
vitamin A
If you're deficient, you become
predisposed to infections that can
promote telomere shortening.
38. Avocado
Accelerated respiration in mitochondria, remains
effective even in cells attacked by free radicals and
that mitochondria can produce little amounts of
damaging free radicals.
