• Abstract

  The quality of protein ingested plays an important role in nutritional needs throughout life, especially in developing countries and in particular during pregnancy, early childhood, and aging. Uncertainty about diet quality, specifically with reference to protein quality, has potential impacts on a nation's health, economy, agriculture, and food security. Estimates of protein digestibilit…

• Abstract

  Increased incidence of non-transmissible chronic diseases is correlated with dietary pattern in the elderly population. Thereafter, research on dietary patterns is essential to prevent and treat these diseases. There are no standard methods to assess diet in elderly, and underreport of food intake has been described by many authors. Semi-quantitative food intake frequency questionnaires h…

• Abstract

  The population of Latin America (LA) is aging more rapidly than population of developed countries. The practice of physical activity stands out among the factors related to longevity of older people. Total energy expenditure in free living conditions, regardless of specific activities, has been strongly associated with low risk of mortality in healthy older people. Furthermore, good perfo…

• Abstract

  The global population is increasingly aging, and countries such as Japan, China, representatives from North America and Europe, for example, already live with the difficulties associated with the fact of getting older. In 2025, Brazil will be the 6th country in the world in the number of people aged 60 or more and therefore also live with the limitations developed by age. Aging involves c…
