“…Furthermore, Ritchie et al (2013) analyzed in two longitudinal cohorts the association between education and cognitive change for life. Chang et al (2012) analyzed in a sample of 1,841 representative free-standing Taiwanese people, purchasing behavior. Gao et al (2018) studied the effects of participating in different types of social activities at the onset of functional disability and the underlying behavioral and psychosocial mechanisms among adults aged 65 and older in China through a health longevity study during the years 2005, 2008, and 2011.…”

“…On the other hand, it should be borne in mind that positive behavior in daily life activities represents several dimensions of personal well-being, health and safety, and may confer greater longevity (Chang et al, 2012). Thus, older people who buy every day to meet their needs have a 27% lower risk of death than less frequent shoppers.…”

The world population increases every day as a consequence of the increase in life expectancy and longevity of humans. There are several factors analyzed in the different studies that have been developed on this topic. The research carried out in this field distinguishes biological, cultural, and cognitive factors; some of them describing similar results, while many others showed antagonistic results. Our study was oriented to the accomplishment of a bibliographical revision with the objective to verify the scientific production on "memory, cognitive development, and aging linked with longevity"-international/ national studies were analyzed and identified. The method carried out was through a research in the databases: SciELO, UAM, PePSIC, LILACS, PubMed, PsycINFO, Dialnet, and Teseo; in a period of 10 years, considering the studies published between January 2008 and December 2017. From the results found at first, 16 articles were analyzed after the application of the exclusion criteria. Likewise, we analyzed the relationship of longevity with the level of studies in Spain from a group of people over 60 years of age counted in January 2017. The literature review determined that there are psycho-cultural aspects that have a decisive influence on the increase in longevity, such as the performance of activities with positive mental states, positive emotions and experiences, and the level of studies.

“…Using fresh ingredients also means more frequent food shopping -which then stimulates physical activity and provides weight-bearing exercise and vitamin D from being outdoors. Frequent shopping, too, predicts longer lives (4) . One of the striking things in Chen et al's study (3) is that women with less education seemed to cook more and have higher survival.…”

“…We selected 11 nutritionally modifiable factors predicting mortality through prior knowledge of this population and a literature review. They were appetite 21 , chewing ability 22 , DDS 19 , daily vegetable expenditure 48 , frequency of cooking 18 , frequency of eating with others 44 , frequency of shopping 16 , alcohol consumption 49 , PA 10 , BMI 50 , and waist circumference 51 . The measurement details for 11 candidate factors are summarized in Table 1 .…”

“…Ageing is affected by demographic, epidemiologic, and nutritional transitions 15 with nutrition-related factors the most modifiable. Nutritional factors derive from the underlying food system which is reflected in the food supply and shopping 16 , nutritional knowledge 17 , skills such as cooking 18 , along with dietary patterns and quality 9 , 19 . There are age-related nutritional conditions such as the anorexia of ageing 20 , 21 , chewing disability 22 , cognitive impairment 23 and problems with food and eating 24 .…”

Nutritional factors contributing to disability and mortality are modifiable in later life. Indices would add utility. We developed a gender-specific Healthy Ageing Nutrition Index (HANI) for all-cause mortality in free-living elderly. We stratified 1898 participants aged ≥65 y from the 1999–2000 Nutrition and Health Survey in Taiwan by region and randomly allocated them into development and validation sets. Linkage to the National Death Registry database until December 31, 2008 enabled mortality prediction using Cox proportional-hazards models. Four factors (appetite, eating with others, dietary diversity score, and BMI) with best total of 25 HANI points for men; and 3 factors (cooking frequency, dietary diversity score, and BMI) with best total of 27 HANI points for women, were developed. In the validation set, the highest HANI group exhibited a greater intake of plant-derived food and associated nutrients, a favourable quality of life, and more muscle mass, compared with the lowest group. The highest HANI group predicts mortality risk lower by 44 percent in men and 61 percent in women. Adjusted mortality HRs were comparable between sets. HANI is a simple, non-invasive, inexpensive, and potentially modifiable tool for nutrition monitoring and survival prediction for older adults, superior to its individual components.
