Atherosclerosis is a disease where plaque builds up in the arteries, limiting blood flow. It is caused by chronic inflammation and is the leading cause of heart attacks and strokes. Lifestyle changes like a healthy diet, exercise, weight control, and avoiding tobacco can help prevent and manage atherosclerosis. Functional foods rich in antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, fiber and other nutrients may also help reduce the risk and progression of atherosclerosis. These include fish, nuts, citrus fruits, soy, tea, coffee, and cocoa. Proper diagnosis and medical treatment of risk factors like high cholesterol, hypertension, and diabetes are also important to treat atherosclerosis.

Lecture 14 (Elderly in the Nutrition) .pptxLawrence301995
This document discusses nutrition for the elderly and reducing inflammation through diet. It provides 3 key points:
1) Nutrition plays a major role in protecting health and slowing disease progression for the elderly. Meeting their nutritional needs is challenging due to reduced intake, lack of variety, medications, and institutional food choices.
2) Chronic, low-grade inflammation increases with age and is related to increased mortality risk. Diet is a major cause of inflammation - sugars, processed foods, and red meat should be limited. Anti-inflammatory nutrients like omega-3s and vitamins C, D, and E help reduce inflammation.
3) Common age-related diseases like osteoporosis, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer
This document discusses nutrition for the elderly. It notes that aging brings physiological, psychological, and immunological changes that influence nutritional status. Key nutritional needs for the elderly include reduced daily energy needs but stable or increased needs for protein, calcium, vitamins D and B12, and omega-3 fatty acids. Common nutritional problems for seniors are obesity, malnutrition, osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, and immune system weakness. The principles of nutrition for older adults emphasize balanced meals, adequate hydration and fiber, limited salt and sugar, and regular fish consumption.

This document discusses prevention of geriatric problems in aging. It begins by defining key terms like gerontology and geriatrics. Preventive geriatrics aims to increase lifespan by preventing physical, psychological and medical issues, prolong independent living, and enhance quality of life. Issues faced by the elderly like diseases, accidents, and psychological problems are described. Ways to prevent issues include healthy diet, exercise, avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol. Both non-pharmacological and pharmacological measures for prevention of diseases like atherosclerosis, osteoporosis and cognitive decline are outlined. The document also covers screening for conditions in the elderly and areas for primary and secondary prevention.
This document discusses diet and nutrition recommendations for those living with HIV. It summarizes that highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has shifted concerns from wasting to lipodystrophy and increased risk of heart disease. A study found those with HIV-related fat redistribution syndrome ate less calories, protein and fiber. HAART treatment can raise cholesterol levels from pre-infection levels. Cholesterol plays many important roles in the body and some studies found lower cholesterol associated with greater HIV infection risk. Long-term recommendations focus on maintaining a healthy weight, choosing high-quality fats, increasing omega-3s, reducing refined carbs and trans fats, exercising, and considering natural therapies before drugs to manage cholesterol.
Title: Navigating Obesity: Understanding, Impact, Solutions
In this presentation, we unravel obesity's complexity, exploring its subcategories and the significance of Body Mass Index. Key facts underscore its global urgency. We dissect causes, from genetics to sedentary lifestyles, and outline health risks like cardiovascular issues and diabetes. We address the challenge of "double burden of malnutrition." Solutions include balanced diets, activity, stress management, and professional guidance. Real-life success stories inspire, and a Q&A session fosters engagement. Our aim: empower individuals to grasp obesity's nuances, mitigate its impacts, and embrace healthier living.
This document discusses macro and micronutrients toxicity. It defines key terms like nutrients, toxicity, acute toxicity, chronic toxicity, and nutrients toxicity. It provides the tolerable upper intake levels for various macro and micronutrients. It then discusses the toxicity effects of excess consumption of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. It provides examples of studies that show links between high intake of certain nutrients and increased risk of conditions like diabetes, dental caries, atherosclerosis, cancer, and more. The document concludes with a discussion of toxicity effects of excess vitamins from the B complex group.
This document discusses health promotion for the elderly. It outlines the objectives of health promotion as maintaining function, quality of life, and independence. Key components of health promotion discussed include exercise, nutrition, rest, medical checkups, and reducing high risk behaviors. Specific guidelines are provided for each component, such as types and benefits of exercise, nutritional requirements, and factors impacting sleep. The role of nurses in assessing health risks and educating on health promotion is also summarized.
This document discusses nutrition needs and recommendations for adults and elderly individuals. Key points include: no single age defines "elderly" but recommendations separate adults into 51-70 and those over 70; common health issues in aging include heart disease, cancer, and diabetes; physiological changes with aging like declining testosterone and bone loss affect nutrition needs; risk factors for malnutrition in elderly include loss of senses, lean mass, and mobility as well as depression and financial barriers; nutrition recommendations focus on meeting calcium, vitamin D, protein, fiber and hydration needs through diet and supplements while limiting sodium, saturated fat, and alcohol. Regular exercise, social engagement and medical care can help promote healthy aging.
MODERN DIET AND ITS METABOLIC DISORDERS Maria Rajpoot
Modern diets high in calories and low in nutrients can lead to metabolic disorders. Junk food is high in fat, salt, sugar and provides empty calories. An imbalance diet may cause malnutrition, obesity, and increased risk of diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. To avoid metabolic issues, one should eat a balanced diet with proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and minerals from whole foods and limit refined sugars and processed foods. Regular exercise is also important for maintaining metabolic health. Metabolic disorders occur due to abnormal chemical reactions in the body that disrupt the normal metabolic processes.
This document discusses nutrition in geriatric patients. It begins with introductions that note how nutrition affects oral health and tolerance of dentures. It then covers terminology, nutritional requirements, and importance of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water. Challenges of nutrition for aging populations are described, such as decreased intake and increased nutrient needs. Effects of poor nutrition like oral lesions and osteoporosis are summarized. Guidelines for dietary counseling of denture patients focus on soft foods initially and maintaining a balanced diet. The conclusion stresses the importance of nutrition for health and tissues, and how nutrition can impact denture success.

This document discusses obesity as a global health issue. It provides statistics showing that worldwide, over 1 billion adults are overweight or obese. In the United States specifically, over 78 million adults and 12.5 million children are considered obese. The main causes of obesity outlined are disrupted sleep patterns, highly palatable foods and large portion sizes, sedentary lifestyles, and a lack of self-control. Health issues associated with obesity include increased risk of diseases like heart disease and diabetes as well as psychological impacts. Prevention methods include eating less, exercising more, and lifestyle changes, while medical interventions include weight loss medications and bariatric surgery.
This document discusses nutrition and health issues related to teenagers aged 12-18. It notes that nutritional requirements are high during this period of rapid growth and development. Dietary recommendations encourage consumption of fruits/veggies, proteins, grains and dairy. However, surveys find average intakes among teens fall short of recommendations, with low fiber, iron, calcium and high saturated fat, sugar and salt. Maintaining good nutrition is important for health, cognitive ability and behavior. Eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia can impact both physical and mental health if left untreated.
lifestyle disorders and its homoeopathic approach AdityaDhade1
Lifestyle disorders arise from unhealthy lifestyle habits and can be influenced by factors like occupation, environment, diet, and stress. Common controllable risk factors include poor diet, lack of exercise, smoking, and alcohol. Uncontrollable factors include age, gender, family history, and race. Major lifestyle diseases reported by WHO are cardiovascular disease, cancer, respiratory disease, and diabetes, which account for 80% of premature deaths globally. Examples of lifestyle disorders discussed are heart disease, obesity, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, stroke, COPD, depression, and carcinomas. Homoeopathic approaches focus on treating the whole person based on their physical and mental constitution. Certain remedies like Crataegus, Aurum metallicum,

Nutrition & You is a textbook that discusses nutrition and factors influencing food choices. It defines nutrition as the science studying how nutrients in food nourish the body. The six essential nutrient categories are carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and water. While a well-balanced diet meets nutrient needs, many Americans consume too many calories, sugar, saturated fat and sodium and not enough fiber and nutrients like vitamin D. This contributes to high obesity and chronic disease rates. Healthy People 2030 aims to improve the American diet and reduce preventable diseases.
The document discusses obesity, defining it as a condition of excessive body fat that is associated with various health risks, and examines its causes such as overeating, physical inactivity, and genetic factors; it also explores strategies for weight loss through diet, exercise, behavior modification, and in some cases medications, noting that most people regain lost weight without long-term lifestyle changes and support.

Exploring the Benefits of Binaural Hearing: Why Two Hearing Aids Are Better T...Ear Solutions (ESPL)
Binaural hearing using two hearing aids instead of one offers numerous advantages, including improved sound localization, enhanced sound quality, better speech understanding in noise, reduced listening effort, and greater overall satisfaction. By leveraging the brain’s natural ability to process sound from both ears, binaural hearing aids provide a more balanced, clear, and comfortable hearing experience. If you or a loved one is considering hearing aids, consult with a hearing care professional at Ear Solutions hearing aid clinic in Mumbai to explore the benefits of binaural hearing and determine the best solution for your hearing needs. Embracing binaural hearing can lead to a richer, more engaging auditory experience and significantly improve your quality of life.
This particular slides consist of- what is Pneumothorax,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is a summary of Pneumothorax:
Pneumothorax, also known as a collapsed lung, is a condition that occurs when air leaks into the space between the lung and chest wall. This air buildup puts pressure on the lung, preventing it from expanding fully when you breathe. A pneumothorax can cause a complete or partial collapse of the lung.

• Average life expectancy has doubled over the
last 200 years and been increasing by ~2y
per decade (10 years over 50 years)
• For the first time there are more people over
the age of 60 than under 16 (2001 census)
• Around 16% of the UK population is aged
over 65 years (13% in 1971) and the
proportion is increasing rapidly
• The greatest increase is in those over the age
of 85 - this reached 1.2 million people in 2005
• These demographic changes pose many
challenges for society and our health care
systems
Ageing in the UK
9. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
Changes with ageing - 1
• Increased risk of chronic disease, cognitive impairment and
dementia, arthritis
• Activity level usually declines
• Decline in lean body mass (muscle) and BMR
• Reduction in bone density (especially in women)
– increased risk of fractures
• Impaired dentition
• Impairments in digestive function (e.g. gastric acid and
digestive enzymes) can lead to reduced nutrient
bioavailability
10. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
Changes with ageing - 2
• Skin changes (less vitamin D produced)
• Changes in taste perception (by age 74-85 the number
of taste buds falls by 65% and sensitivity to salty and
bitter tastes decrease)
• Changes in sense of smell can reduce pleasure of eating
• Eyesight & arthritis may make food preparation difficult
• Psychosocial factors may also exert a substantial effect
on food choice and intake, and hence nutritional status
All may influence nutritional status

Cardiovascular System
• Coronary heart disease most common cause of death
in the UK - 105,000 deaths a year
• Leading cause of death and disability in old age –
accounts for 40% of deaths over the age of 75 years
• Every 2 minutes someone has a heart attack in this
country
• In about 30% of heart attacks the patient dies before
reaching hospital
14. Copyright British Nutrition

Premature heart disease can be
prevented
Smoking Regular physical activity
Fat, particularly
saturated fats
Fruit and
vegetables
Salt Fibre - wholegrains &
pulses
Alcohol Oily fish
Maintain healthy body weight

Diet & physical activity -
synergistic effects
• For overweight/ obese individuals a low fat diet
PLUS physical activity reduces risk of type 2
diabetes by 50%
• Benefit continues after intervention ends
16. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
Bone
Bone health is optimised
and maintained by
exercise and a healthy
diet.
Weight bearing activity improves bone mass, as well as
coordination, flexibility, muscle strength and balance.
Calcium and vitamin D are both essential for healthy bones.
Vitamin K is also important.
Menopause
17. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
• Vitamin D can be produced by the skin in response
to the sun.
• Low vitamin D status is widespread in the population,
particularly among elderly people – 37% of elderly people
in ‘homes’.
• Older adults (65 years or over) should take a vitamin D
supplement (10μg/day RNI).
• Osteoporosis: 1 in 3 women and 1 in 12 men over 55
years.
• Calcium & vitamin D – reduced fractures in fragile elderly.
• High vitamin A intakes, alcohol, smoking, inactivity all
harmful.
Bone
18. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
Eye health
• 1 in 4 over age 85 are visually impaired
• 50% of visual impairment in older people
is due to treatable conditions
– cataract, refractive error, diabetic retinopathy
• Risk factors: smoking, also high exposure to sunlight, and
obesity
• Studies suggest dietary antioxidants (vitamin C, lutein,
zeaxanthein) may help protect against cataract and AMD
• Evidence less robust, but it is likely that consuming at least
1 portion of oily fish/week will reduce risk of AMD
• No evidence from trials to support use of supplements in
prevention of eye disease
Cataract
AMD
19. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
• Stroke, dementia, Parkinson’s disease
and depression account for most cases
of disability in older people
• Incidence increases exponentially with increasing
age
• In UK, stroke is 3rd most common cause of death
and the major cause of disability in older people
• In UK, 1 in 14 people over 65 years and 1 in 6
over 80 have a form of dementia
– Affects about 700,000 in the UK and 24 million worldwide
• Depression affects 1 in 4 people over their lifetime
The ageing brain
20. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
• Major modifiable risk factors: smoking, high blood
pressure & high blood lipids, obesity, ‘unhealthy’ diet,
physical inactivity
• Dietary factors: reducing alcohol, reducing salt,
increasing fruit and veg intake, reducing saturated fat
and trans fat, increasing intake of unsaturated fatty
acids (oily fish, vegetable oils)
• Many of the established risk factors for stroke
are also believed to be relevant to dementia,
Parkinson’s disease and depression
Diet and stroke
21. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
Diet and dementia
• High blood pressure & high cholesterol are key risk
factors
• Healthy diet - ? fish
• Mental stimulation
• Not smoking, keeping active and eating a healthy diet
have been associated with healthy mental ageing
• Low/moderate amounts of alcohol may be protective
22. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
Digestive System - cancer
• Upper GI: smoking, high alcohol intake & obesity risk of
cancer. High fruit /veg (especially those rich in vitamin C or
beta-carotene and allium veg eg garlic) offer some
protection.
• Colon: obesity and high alcohol intake (convincing);
consumption of large amounts of red meat (particularly
processed meat) modestly increases risk; attenuated by
high fibre intake
• Calcium supplementation/milk consumption is moderately
important in relation to protection against colon cancer
• Strong evidence for benefits of physical activity – colon
cancer.
23. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
Digestive System - other conditions
• Gut flora changes with age ( bifidobacteria, increased diversity).
• Prebiotics may help reverse this but there are few studies in older
people
– calcium absorption,
– ? cancer protection
– gut barrier function against infection
• Probiotics - alone or in combination with prebiotics, show
considerable promise as therapy for antibiotic-associated diarrhoea.
May be able to counter C. difficle associated diarrhoea
• High fibre intake protects against diverticular disease
• Fibre plus adequate fluid may protect against constipation. Also a role
for probiotics and some prebiotics.
24. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
Benefits of a
healthy diet
• Protection against chronic diseases
• Preservation of immune function, digestive health, functional
ability, bone health, oral health, vision (for example)
• Benefits for cognitive function, mental health, wellbeing
• Minimises risk of weight loss, under-nutrition, low nutrient
status, deficiency diseases (e.g. anaemia)
• Aids recovery from illness.
26. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
Benefits of physical activity
• Important for the maintenance of mobility and
independent living
• Improving strength, balance and co-ordination
is highly effective in reducing the risk of falls
• Helps prevent CVD, type 2 diabetes, obesity
and some types of cancer
• Benefits bone, joint and digestive health
• Improves mental wellbeing and can help
prevent depression.
• Also associated with reduced risk of cognitive
decline
27. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
• All adults, including older people
should aim to achieve at least 5 x 30
minutes of moderate intensity activity
each week
– include activities to improve strength
& balance e.g. dancing, yoga, taichi
• Only 18% of males and 14% of
females aged 65-74 years
achieve this (HSE 2004)
Benefits of physical activity
28. Copyright British Nutrition
Foundation
• Accumulating evidence that physical activity
influences cognitive health in later life
– better cognitive function and less cognitive decline in
later life
• 38% lower risk of dementia
– 6-year follow up of 1740 people 65 y+ in those
exercising more than 3x/week versus those who
didn’t exercise regularly (Larson et al 2006)

Malnutrition in older adults -1
• Despite rates of obesity, malnutrition is still
surprisingly common in older adults
• Reduces immune response, impairs wound healing,
reduces muscle strength, causes fatigue and
depression
• Increased risk of hospital admission and increased
length of stay in hospital
• Estimated that 10-40% of adults in UK hospitals
and care homes are malnourished (based on BMI
< 20) (NICE 2006)

Need for good hydration
• Important for all – 1.5-2L fluid /day (~ third from food)
• Ensuring that older people are well hydrated is essential
• Dehydration, by as little as 2% loss of body weight, results
in impaired physiological and performance responses
• In extreme cases, mental confusion that has been
interpreted as the onset of senility, has been reversed by
adequate hydration
38. Copyright British Nutrition

Conclusions
• Nutrition and lifestyle can have a profound
impact on healthy life expectancy: start
young!!
• A healthy diet & regular physical activity will
aid recovery from illness and help protect
against health problems
– such as anaemia, diabetes, osteoporosis, heart
disease, stroke, under- /overweight, constipation &
other digestive disorders
• With longevity increasing, health care costs
are set to escalate out of control
