the aging process is understood as a dynamic and plastic phenomenon involving various physiological and functional changes, which can be modified or modulated by external factors and lifestyle choices. Nutrition and regular physical activity have demonstrated their unique contribution to functional health and energy balance. This study investigates the impact of nutrition on physical condition among individuals over 65, focusing on energy intake, macronutrient consumption, and lipid profiles.
for this purpose, four groups were analyzed: Maintenance Gymnastics, Tai Chi, Professional Tai Chi, and a sedentary control group.
the goal was to assess whether a better diet correlates with better physical outcomes.
all activity groups showed inadequate dietary patterns. The Spanish population consumed fewer carbohydrates and excess protein and fat, while the Chinese population adhered more closely to carbohydrate and lipid recommendations, maintaining a hyperproteic diet.
the key differences were not in diet but in physical activity levels. The Asian lifestyle places strong emphasis on lifelong physical activity, complemented by culinary habits that enhance certain dietary parameters.
衰老过程被理解为一种动态且可塑的现象，涉及各种生理和功能变化，这些变化可由外部因素和生活方式选择进行改变或调节。营养和规律的体育活动已证明它们对功能健康和能量平衡具有独特贡献。本研究调查了营养对65岁以上人群身体状况的影响，重点关注能量摄入、宏量营养素消耗和血脂谱。
为此，分析了四组：维持性体操组、太极拳组、专业太极拳组和久坐对照组。
目标是评估更好的饮食是否与更好的身体结果相关。
所有活动组的饮食模式均不充足。西班牙人群碳水化合物摄入量较少，蛋白质和脂肪摄入过量，而中国人群更严格遵循碳水化合物和脂质建议，保持高蛋白饮食。
关键差异不在于饮食，而在于身体活动水平。亚洲生活方式非常重视终身体育活动，并辅以增强某些饮食参数的烹饪习惯。
