The effect of multidomain lifestyle intervention on daily functioning in older people
Journal of the American Geriatrics Society Mar 02, 2019
Kulmala J, et al. - Researchers assessed daily functioning among 1,260 older adults (mean age at baseline: 69 years) who underwent a 2-year multidomain lifestyle intervention—including simultaneous physical activity intervention, nutritional counseling, vascular risk monitoring and management, and cognitive training and social activity—in the randomized, controlled, Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study to Prevent Cognitive Impairment and Disability. Eligible participants included those at risk of cognitive decline. Daily functioning was found to be maintained with the 2-year lifestyle intervention. Based on the findings, the authors noted the possible favorable impact of healthy eating, exercise, and cognitive and social activity on functional independence in older people.
