Abstract:
Aging is a process where people are becoming older with suffering many types of chronic
diseases. Aging is directly associated with a decline in the most physiological systems that the
culminate limit of physical capacity. Considering the importance of identifying by long term and
short term outcomes that help to the elderly person to maintain the adequate nutritional status
and functionally independent, need to identify the intervention strategies which are Target to
improvement the dietary intake with physical performance.
In many country of Asia, like Bangladesh, people are growing too fasting over age 60 or more
segment of the population. One of the major risk factors mortality and morbidity in this age
group disability by the mobility. There are more evidence that can reduce the risk developing in
the older age with improved nutrition. Mobility underlies to ability to perform basic activities by
the daily living necessary for the independence, Heath, mental and physical function in aging.
In older adults there are a many types of risk factors by compromised the nutritional status couse
of the physical changes which are associated aging, including Physiological, cognitive,
depression, isolation and limited income. Malnutrition most probably affects in the elderly of
quality of life, to increase health care cost and to increase the risk of short time mortality. If
people do not consumed proper nutrient foods and habitually poor dietary intake in the aging,
then elderly people are loss their weight, loss muscle and deficiency like protein energy
malnutrition. So for the minimize and prevent malnutrition, must be following nutritional status
and intake properly nutrient food with dietary intake.
