“…People aged 60 years and above constitute 9.3% (approximately 7.5 million) of the total population of Iran, which number is predicted to rise to 11% by 2026 [ 3 ]. Aging is associated with chronic illnesses, disabilities, and cognitive impairment [ 4 ]. Hypertension, sleep disorders, indigestion, obesity, osteoporosis, and balance problems are among the health issues that correlate with old age [ 5 – 6 ].…”

Background With increasing life expectancy and a growing population of older adults, the prevalence of osteoporosis has risen, resulting in a higher incidence of bone fractures, which necessitate extended treatment and specialized medical care. This study investigates the relationship between smoking, alcohol consumption, drug abuse, and osteoporosis among older adults in southern Iran, utilizing cohort data. Methods This cross–sectional study is derived from the Fasa Adult Cohort Study (FACS), which included 10,133 individuals. From this cohort, we selected 1,631 older adults using census sampling methods. Our study aimed to explore the correlation between smoking, alcohol consumption, and drug abuse among older adults and the incidence of osteoporosis. We collected demographic information, nutritional indexes, medical history, glucocorticoid usage, and self-reported data on smoking, alcohol consumption, drug abuse, and osteoporosis through questionnaires. To investigate the relationship between smoking, alcohol, and drug use with osteoporosis while accounting for confounding factors, we employed logistic regression analysis. Results The average age of the study participants was 64.09 ± 3.8 years, with a majority (898 (55.1%)) being female. Osteoporosis prevalence among the subjects was 25.20%. The results did not reveal a significant correlation between smoking, alcohol consumption, drug abuse, and osteoporosis (p > 0.05). Regression analysis identified gender, recent history of fractures within the past five years, history of using glucocorticoids, and physical activity as significant predictive risk factors for osteoporosis within the study population (p < 0.05). Conclusion The study underscores the significance of addressing osteoporosis risk factors in older adults. Healthcare policymakers and administrators can use these findings to identify and mitigate influential factors contributing to osteoporosis in this demographic.

“…Malnutrition in the elderly is a major factor that interferes with health levels and raises the risk of disease and disability (Corcoran et al, 2019). Cases of elderly suffering from malnutrition occur in many countries (Moreira et al, 2016;Khoddam et al, 2019). Enhancement in the number of elderly people will have an impact on various lives.…”

Background. Person’s physical abilities will decrease when elderly. The definition of elderly is someone who has reached the age of more than 60 years. Decreased physical ability can lead to reduced nutritional status which has an impact on decreasing quality of life. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between nutritional status and the quality of life for elderly in RW 3 area of Pasar Minggu. Methods. This study used a quantitative correlation design with a cross sectional approach. The population of this study is the elderly in the RW 3 area of Pasar Minggu. Data was collected from 187 respondents through a questionnaire. The data obtained were analyzed by SPSS. Result. Study showed malnutrition 45%, normal 35%, obesity 20% and good quality of life 35%, poor quality of life 65%. Test result p value, 0.002

Low dietary intake of calcium, vitamin D, vitamin C and magnesium has been associated with increased risk of osteoporosis. The purpose of the study was to evaluate changes in several bone health indicators and metabolic biomarkers in postmenopausal women, with high osteopenia or osteoporosis, followed by a nutritional intervention program. 115 apparently healthy postmenopausal women (52±8 years old) were randomized into four groups: group I (n=40) received daily 1000 mg vitamin C, 100 mcg vitamin D3, 500 mg calcium(Ca) and 300 mg magnesium (Mg); group II (n=42) received daily 100 mcg vitamin D3, 500 mg Ca and 300 mg Mg; group III (n=18) received daily 5 mg bisphosphonates, 100 mcg vitamin D3, 500 mg Ca and 300 mg Mg; and group IV (n=15) received daily about 364 mg polyphenols via an innovative functional food (50 g olive paste enriched with mountain tea extract) along with 100 mcg vitamin D3, 500 mg Ca and 300 mg Mg. Groups I -III received supplementation for a year whereas group IV for 5 months. Changes in bone health indicators and metabolic biomarkers were assessed at the beginning and at the end of the study. Anthropometric indices and whole-body bone mineral density (BMD) were also evaluated at the beginning and at the end of the intervention period. The results revealed improved elevated levels of 25(OH)D3, in groups II, III and IV (+3,71% and +1.45% and +5.62% respectively). Significant positive changes were recorded, for whole-body BMD, in all four study groups. Significant beneficial changes for total cholesterol were observed in group IV (-2.07%, P&lt;0.05) and positive changes in group I for HDL biomarker (+61.62%, P&lt;0.05). Additional larger-scale clinical trials and intervention studies are considered essential, to fully investigate and elucidate associations between dietary components and biochemical indices of bone health.
