Changes in Combined Lifestyle Risks and the Transition of Activities of Daily Living in the Elderly Population of Taiwan: Evidence from the Taiwan Longitudinal Study on Aging. Nutrients 2024; 16:1499. [PMID: 38794737 PMCID: PMC11123933 DOI: 10.3390/nu16101499] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2024] [Revised: 05/05/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Functional ability decline occurs with age. This study aims to investigate the associations between the lifestyle factors-exercising, food consumption, and smoking-and the functional ability of the activities of daily living (ADL) by gender. The data were obtained from the Taiwan longitudinal study on aging, a national cohort study. The cross-sectional results demonstrated that the frequency of exercising was negatively associated with ADL in both men and women. Dairy products were positively associated with ADL in men. The longitudinal results illustrated that current and consistent exercising were negatively associated with changes in ADL scores over 4- and 8-year periods in both men and women. Seafood consumption was negatively associated with changes in the subsequent 4-year ADL scores. Past smoking was positively associated with changes in subsequent 4-year ADL scores in men, while current smoking was positively associated with changes in subsequent 8-year ADL scores in women. Therefore, consistent exercising, food consumption, and smoking were associated with ADL functional ability in elderly people, and the associations differed by gender. Elders exercising consistently had good ADL performance and maintained their ADL ability better, especially women. Seafood consumption decreased the risk of ADL decline, while smoking increased the risk of ADL decline.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction increasingly becomes a target for promoting healthy aging and longevity. The dysfunction of mitochondria with age ultimately leads to a decline in physical functions. Among them, biogenesis dysfunction and the imbalances in the metabolism of reactive oxygen species and mitochondria as signaling organelles in the aging process have aroused our attention. Dietary intervention in mitochondrial dysfunction and physical decline during aging processes is essential, and greater attention should be directed toward healthful legume intake. Legumes are constantly under investigation for their nutritional and bioactive properties, and their consumption may yield antiaging and mitochondria-protecting benefits. This review summarizes mitochondrial dysfunction with age, discusses the benefits of legumes on mitochondrial function, and introduces the potential role of legumes in managing aging-related physical decline. Additionally, it reveals the benefits of legume intake for the elderly and offers a viable approach to developing legume-based functional food.

ACS OMEGA 2023; 8:34431-34441. [PMID: 37779966 PMCID: PMC10536037 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c02756] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of the kiln (SK-S) and liquid smoking (LS-S) processes on the quality of inulin-fortified emulsion-type Pangasius mince sausages. The moisture content during the storage significantly (p < 0.05) decreased in C-S (control) sausages and increased (p < 0.05) in SK-S and LS-S sausages. The protein content decreased (p < 0.05) in C-S, SK-S, and LS-S throughout the storage period. Initially, among the three processed sausages, LS-S showed a lower pH value, and as the days of storage progressed, all the treatments exhibited a declining trend (p < 0.05). A significant (p < 0.05) increase in the PV was observed in all the sausages during the storage days at 5 ± 1 °C, but the intensity of the increase was lower in SK-S and LS-S. The total viable count of C-S and SK-S sausages reached the limit of acceptability (6 log10cfu g-1) on the 20th day and on the 24th day of storage. The electrophoretic protein pattern of LS-S samples exhibited retention of all bands, indicating the lower proteolysis of MHC, actin, and troponin T in comparison with other treatments. The hardness (p < 0.05) and cohesiveness (p > 0.05) values of both SK-S and LS-S reduced as the storage days progressed. The present study indicates that the emulsion-type Pangasius sausages incorporated with inulin powder (2%) exposed to kiln smoking and commercial liquid smoking retained good-to-better sensory attributes up to day 16 (C-S) and day 20 (SK-S and LS-S) under refrigerated storage at 5 ± 1 °C in low-density vacuum polyethylene (LDPE) pouches.

Relationship between protein intake and grip strength in qualitative and quantitative aspects among the elderly in Korea: results from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. BMC Geriatr 2023; 23:330. [PMID: 37237387 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-023-04016-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2022] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated the association between quantitative and qualitative protein intake and grip strength (GS) in the South Korean population to explore nutritional management for the prevention of sarcopenia. METHODS This cross-sectional study was based on data from a nationally representative sample of the South Korean elderly population, consisting of 1,531 men and 1,983 women aged 65 years and older who participated in the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2016 to 2019. Low GS was defined as GS < 28 kg in men and GS < 18 kg in women. Protein intake was assessed using 1-day 24-h recall, and we analyzed absolute protein intake, protein intake by food source, and protein intake compared to dietary reference intake with per body weight or absolute daily recommended value. RESULTS The total and animal protein intake and protein intake from legumes, fish and shellfish were significantly lower in women with a low GS than in those with a normal GS. After adjusting for confounding factors, women who consumed more protein than the estimated average requirement (EAR, 40 g/day for women) were 0.528 times less likely to have low GS than women consuming less protein than the EAR (95% CI: 0.373-0.749), and consuming any amount of protein from legumes were 0.656 times less likely (95% CI: 0.500-0.860) to have low GS than women who did not consume any amount of legume protein. CONCLUSIONS This study provides epidemiological evidence that adequate protein intake above EAR and protein intake from legumes should be guided for preventing low GS, especially in elderly women.

Abstract
Introduction Since soy isoflavones compensate for age-related estrogen reduction, adequate intake of soy products may prevent the decline in activities of daily living (ADL) due to estrogen reduction in women. However, it is unclear whether regular soy product intake prevents ADL decline. This study examined the effects of soy product consumption on basic/instrumental ADL (BADL/IADL) in Japanese women 75 years or older for 4 years. Materials and Methods The subject population consisted of 1289 women aged 75 years or older living in Tokyo who underwent private health examinations in 2008. For 1114 (or 1042) participants without baseline BADL (or IADL) disability, we examined the association between baseline soy product consumption frequency and the BADL (or IADL) disabilities 4 years later using logistic regression analyses. The models were adjusted for baseline age, or further for dietary variety for food groups other than soy products, exercise and sport participation, smoking, pre-existing disease number, and body mass index. Results Regardless of adjustment for potential confounding factors, less frequent soy product consumption was associated with higher BADL or IADL disability incidence. In the fully adjusted models, the trend toward a higher incidence of disabilities with less frequent soy product consumption was statistically significant for both BADL (p = 0.001) and IADL (p = 0.007). Conclusions Those who consumed soy products more frequently at baseline were less likely to develop BADL and IADL disabilities after 4 years than those who did not. The results show that daily soy product consumption may prevent functional ADL decline in older Japanese women.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cognitive function and depression impact critically the daily functioning of menopausal women. This study aimed to explore the mediating and moderating effects of depressive symptoms on the association between cognitive function and activities of daily living (ADL) difficulty in postmenopausal women. METHODS A total of 2,596 postmenopausal women from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study completed the Chinese version of the Mini-Mental State Examination, basic ADL (BADL) and instrumental ADL (IADL) scales, and 10-item Short-Form Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression. We constructed structural equation modeling to examine the association between cognitive function, depressive symptoms, and BADL/IADL difficulty. RESULTS The prevalence of BADL/IADL difficulty in postmenopausal women was 22.5% and 31.5%, respectively. After adjustments for demographic and health-related covariates, cognitive decline (contributed by four cognitive dimensions with different weights) was significantly associated with BADL/IADL difficulty (contributed by six-item daily activities with different weights). Depressive symptoms mediated and explained 28.8% and 23.2% of cognitive function associations with BADL and IADL difficulty, respectively. The Johnson-Neyman technique identified a threshold of eight and four for depressive symptoms, beyond which the protective effect of cognitive function on BADL and IADL emerged. CONCLUSIONS Depressive symptoms mediated and moderated the association between cognition and BADL/IADL difficulty in postmenopausal women. Compared with BADL, IADL may be more sensitive to changes in cognitive function. More strength should be put on developing comprehensive intervention techniques focusing on simultaneous intervention of multidimensional cognitive function and depression to maintain and improve the quality of life of postmenopausal women.

Household Food Insecurity Is Associated with Adverse Mental Health Indicators and Lower Quality of Life among Koreans: Results from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2012-2013. Nutrients 2016; 8:E819. [PMID: 27999277 PMCID: PMC5188472 DOI: 10.3390/nu8120819] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2016] [Revised: 11/28/2016] [Accepted: 12/09/2016] [Indexed: 01/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Food insecurity is an ongoing public health issue and contributes to mental health status. We investigated whether food insecurity is associated with inadequate nutrient intake and whether it affects mental health indicators (perceived stress/experience of depressive symptom/suicidal ideation) and quality of life (QOL) among Koreans (n = 5862, 20-64 years) using data from the Korea National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (2012-2013). Household food security status was categorized as "food-secure household", "food-insecure household without hunger", and "food-insecure household with hunger". Data on food insecurity, sociodemographic factors, nutrient intake, mental health indicators, and QOL were used. A logistic regression model was conducted to determine odds ratios (ORs) for psychological health. A greater proportion of food-insecure participants were nutritionally deficient compared with expectations of the 2015 Korean Dietary Reference Intakes. These deficiencies were generally higher in both "food-insecure household" groups. Both "food-insecure household" groups, particularly the "food-insecure household with hunger" group showed significantly adverse mental health status (ORs: 1.52-3.83) and lower QOL (ORs: 1.49-3.92) than did the "food-secure household" group before and after adjusting for sex, age, education, household income, smoking/alcohol consumption, physical activity, marital status, and receiving food assistance. In conclusion, food insecurity may be significantly associated with adverse mental health indicators and decreased QOL in young/middle-aged Koreans.

Abstract
Diet is a major lifestyle-related risk factor of various chronic diseases. Dietary intake can be assessed by subjective report and objective observation. Subjective assessment is possible using open-ended surveys such as dietary recalls or records, or using closed-ended surveys including food frequency questionnaires. Each method has inherent strengths and limitations. Continued efforts to improve the accuracy of dietary intake assessment and enhance its feasibility in epidemiological studies have been made. This article reviews common dietary assessment methods and their feasibility in epidemiological studies.
