Summary

Effective exercise and nutrition prescriptions, along with counseling and support of healthy lifestyle choices, are as important as treatment of disease in promoting healthy aging. Exercise prescriptions should consider individual risks and benefits, appropriate modality and dose; possible drug interactions, and use of behavioral techniques to optimize adoption and adherence. The elderly, women, minorities, and those with low income, low educational level, disabilities, or chronic health conditions are at highest risk for low levels of physical activity. They also bear a large burden of diseases amenable to prevention and treatment with exercise but often have the least opportunity for physical activity. Physical activities for older adults have previously focused on improving cardiorespiratory fitness and prolonging life; however, exercise designed to maintain or improve functional independence can also be beneficial. Age-related changes in metabolism, loss of integrity of the oral cavity, social isolation, and chronic illness are among factors putting the elderly at risk of malnutrition syndromes, including anorexia, cachexia, and sarcopenia.
