A B S T R A C T ObjectiveEvaluate the factors associated with diet quality of older adults from the city of São Caetano do Sul, São Paulo, Brazil. MethodsA cross-sectional study was carried out on a sample of 295 older adults receiving care in health care units in São Caetano do Sul. Diet quality was assessed using the Brazilian Healthy Eating Index. The associations between the diet quality mean score and the socio-demographic, economic, and anthropometric characteristics and lifestyle and health conditions were verified using multiple linear regression. ResultsLower diet quality mean score were associated with the variables: marital status (widowed or separated) (β=-2.02; p=0.047), retired (β=-4.24; p=0.034), and smoking (β=-8.06; p=0.001); whereas higher diet quality mean score were associated with higher education level (9 years or more) (β=3.49; p=0.013). ConclusionIndividuals with higher education level had better diet quality, and those who were widowed or separated, retired, and smokers had worse diet quality indicating that socio-demographic, economic, and lifestyle are factors that can influence food choice of older adults.

“…The use of models and theories of health promotion facilitates the understanding of the determinants of health problems and the orientation of the solutions that respond to the needs and interests of the elderly, in addition to the contribution to the promotion of knowledge, reflection and decision in acts of caring and act, favoring the scope of health in the aging process. 12 The painting, the countersignature 01 thematic categories listed for this study, which will be detailed later. Thus, it was possible to find two thematic categories in relation to the study: I) Perceptions of older people on health; II) Perceptions of health promotion strategies and empowerment of active ageing.…”

Objetivos: analisar as percepções de idosos sobre a promoção de saúde em prol de um envelhecimento ativo; refletir sobre estratégias viáveis à promoção de saúde entre grupos de idosos visando o alcance do envelhecimento ativo. Método: estudo descritivo e exploratório, com abordagem qualitativa, realizado com 45 idosos pertencentes a um grupo de convívio. O projeto foi aprovado pela plataforma brasil sob o CAAE 07243812.6.0000.5187. Resultados: a maioria dos idosos pertencentes a esse grupo tinha acesso a informações sobre seu padrão de envelhecimento. Ao questionar sobre promoção de saúde e envelhecimento ativo, fora possível elencar duas categorias temáticas: I) percepções das pessoas idosas sobre saúde; II) percepções das pessoas sobre estratégias de promoção a saúde e empoderamento do envelhecimento ativo. Conclusão: espaços de vivências e grupo de idosos permitem a elaboração de propostas para a promoção a saúde e o empoderamento do envelhecimento ativo.

Aging is accompanied by various functional modifications determined by their environment, lifestyle, nutrition, and genetics. Based on these factors, it is essential to verify the vitamin deficiency in the elderly population. Hypovitaminosis D is commonly present in human aging, increasing the chances of developing noncommunicable chronic diseases. The VDR gene TaqI polymorphism may modify the vitamin D metabolic pathway by altering the interaction between the vitamin D receptor and the active circulating vitamin D. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association between serum vitamin D and biochemical and genetic factors, considering the TaqI polymorphism of the VDR gene, in an elderly population of the Federal District. The study was a descriptive, case-control, quantitative, and cross-sectional type and was conducted in two basic health units in the administrative region of Ceilândia, Federal District, DF, Brazil, with women aged 60 years or older. Anthropometric, biochemical, and genetic parameters (VDR TaqI polymorphism) were evaluated. The adopted significance level was 5%, and statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS version 20.0 program. The study consisted of 128 participants. The most prevalent age was from 60 to 65 years (N = 53; 41.4%). 66 elderly (51.6%) were part of the case group (hypovitaminosis D), while 62 were in the control group. In the case group, 30.2% had grade I obesity, 77.3% were hypertensive, and 51.5% were diabetic. The TT genotype was present in 47% of the case group and 54.8% in the control group (p=0.667). There was no association between serum vitamin D levels and the VDR gene variant TaqI polymorphism in an elderly Brazilian population.
