Active in Old Age Keeps People Mobile
People over 70 who aren"t active are more likely to develop problems walking or climbing stairs within a few years, according to a new study.
These findings suggest that it"s very important to stay 16 in old age, study author Dr. Marjolein Visser told Reuters Health.
"Physical activity in old age is as important 17 taking your medications (药物 )," Visser noted. "You do not need to join an expensive, fancy sports club with hightech (高科技的) equipment. Your body will already 18 from regular walking."
Visser, a Dutch (荷兰的) scholar, explained that 19 active helps prevent people from becoming breathless during simple activities, increase muscle mass and strength, and maintain the balance people need to walk up stairs, for instance.
To investigate how important exercise is to older adults, Visser"s team interviewed 3,075 men and 20 between the ages of 70 and 79, all of whom said they had no problems walking one-quarter of a mile or climbing 21 . The investigators followed the subjects for 4.5 years, noting who developed problems 22 and climbing stairs.
During the study, 34 percent of men and 47 23 of women said they began to struggle with walking and climbing stairs. People 24 were inactive were twice as likely to report these problems as people who said they got regular exercise.
People who didn"t exercise but had active lifestyles appeared to be at a somewhat higher risk of developing 25 walking and climbing stairs, relative to people who exercised 26 . Still, leading an active lifestyle appeared to protect people 27 problems better than being generally inactive, the researchers report in the Journal of the American Geriatrics (老年医学) Society.
Among people who were inactive, 28 who walked even a little bit such as brisk (轻快的) walking for a little over an hour per week—were at a lower 29 of mobility (可动性) problems.
"If you do not like to exercise or you cannot exercise 30 of serious health problems or functional limitations, do try to be as active as possible," Visser advised.

Eat for a Good and Healthful Life

The study, conducted 48 the National Research Council"s committee on Diet and Health, 49 that balancing nutrition, calories and activity is key 50 enjoying a long and healthful life.
The report recommends that most Americans increase 51 activity to a moderate level and make changes in food 52 and calories intake to maintain ideal weight. Most of us—even those of us at ideal weight—need to eat 53 fat so that no more than 30% of our daily calories will come from fat.
That means cutting 54 on red meat and whole milk dairy products. 55 , eat fish, chicken without skin, lean meats, and low-fat and no-fat dairy products.
The report of the Committee on Diet and Health recommends we eat five or more 1/2-cup servings of vegetables and fruits 56 —especially green and yellow vegetables and citrus fruits.
Eating more fruits and vegetables doesn"t have to mean increased calories intake. Many plant foods are nutrient-rich: they provide many vitamins and minerals for very few 57 .
Nutrient-rich foods are particularly important for Americans 58 50-year-old. As we 59 , we need to eat less because our bodies need 60 calories to function properly. But we still need full measures of vitamins and minerals to release the energy in our foods and make us feel strong and healthy.

Active in Old Age Keeps People Mobile
People over 70 who aren"t active are more likely to develop problems walking or climbing stairs within a few years, according to a new study.
These findings suggest that it"s very important to stay 16 in old age, study author Dr. Marjolein Visser told Reuters Health.
"Physical activity in old age is as important 17 taking your medications (药物 )," Visser noted. "You do not need to join an expensive, fancy sports club with hightech (高科技的) equipment. Your body will already 18 from regular walking."
Visser, a Dutch (荷兰的) scholar, explained that 19 active helps prevent people from becoming breathless during simple activities, increase muscle mass and strength, and maintain the balance people need to walk up stairs, for instance.
To investigate how important exercise is to older adults, Visser"s team interviewed 3,075 men and 20 between the ages of 70 and 79, all of whom said they had no problems walking one-quarter of a mile or climbing 21 . The investigators followed the subjects for 4.5 years, noting who developed problems 22 and climbing stairs.
During the study, 34 percent of men and 47 23 of women said they began to struggle with walking and climbing stairs. People 24 were inactive were twice as likely to report these problems as people who said they got regular exercise.
People who didn"t exercise but had active lifestyles appeared to be at a somewhat higher risk of developing 25 walking and climbing stairs, relative to people who exercised 26 . Still, leading an active lifestyle appeared to protect people 27 problems better than being generally inactive, the researchers report in the Journal of the American Geriatrics (老年医学) Society.
Among people who were inactive, 28 who walked even a little bit such as brisk (轻快的) walking for a little over an hour per week—were at a lower 29 of mobility (可动性) problems.
"If you do not like to exercise or you cannot exercise 30 of serious health problems or functional limitations, do try to be as active as possible," Visser advised.

Eat for a Good and Healthful Life
Food 46 us alive. It is our sustenance and our pleasure. But recently, research has shown that the eating habits of the average Americans may be dangerous to future health.

The study, conducted 48 the National Research Council"s committee on Diet and Health, 49 that balancing nutrition, calories and activity is key 50 enjoying a long and healthful life.
The report recommends that most Americans increase 51 activity to a moderate level and make changes in food 52 and calories intake to maintain ideal weight. Most of us—even those of us at ideal weight—need to eat 53 fat so that no more than 30% of our daily calories will come from fat.
That means cutting 54 on red meat and whole milk dairy products. 55 , eat fish, chicken without skin, lean meats, and low-fat and no-fat dairy products.
The report of the Committee on Diet and Health recommends we eat five or more 1/2-cup servings of vegetables and fruits 56 —especially green and yellow vegetables and citrus fruits.
Eating more fruits and vegetables doesn"t have to mean increased calories intake. Many plant foods are nutrient-rich: they provide many vitamins and minerals for very few 57 .
Nutrient-rich foods are particularly important for Americans 58 50-year-old. As we 59 , we need to eat less because our bodies need 60 calories to function properly. But we still need full measures of vitamins and minerals to release the energy in our foods and make us feel strong and healthy.

Active in Old Age Keeps People Mobile
People over 70 who aren"t active are more likely to develop problems walking or climbing stairs within a few years, according to a new study.
These findings suggest that it"s very important to stay 16 in old age, study author Dr. Marjolein Visser told Reuters Health.
"Physical activity in old age is as important 17 taking your medications (药物 )," Visser noted. "You do not need to join an expensive, fancy sports club with hightech (高科技的) equipment. Your body will already 18 from regular walking."
Visser, a Dutch (荷兰的) scholar, explained that 19 active helps prevent people from becoming breathless during simple activities, increase muscle mass and strength, and maintain the balance people need to walk up stairs, for instance.
To investigate how important exercise is to older adults, Visser"s team interviewed 3,075 men and 20 between the ages of 70 and 79, all of whom said they had no problems walking one-quarter of a mile or climbing 21 . The investigators followed the subjects for 4.5 years, noting who developed problems 22 and climbing stairs.
During the study, 34 percent of men and 47 23 of women said they began to struggle with walking and climbing stairs. People 24 were inactive were twice as likely to report these problems as people who said they got regular exercise.
People who didn"t exercise but had active lifestyles appeared to be at a somewhat higher risk of developing 25 walking and climbing stairs, relative to people who exercised 26 . Still, leading an active lifestyle appeared to protect people 27 problems better than being generally inactive, the researchers report in the Journal of the American Geriatrics (老年医学) Society.
Among people who were inactive, 28 who walked even a little bit such as brisk (轻快的) walking for a little over an hour per week—were at a lower 29 of mobility (可动性) problems.
"If you do not like to exercise or you cannot exercise 30 of serious health problems or functional limitations, do try to be as active as possible," Visser advised.

Visser, a Dutch (荷兰的) scholar, explained that 19 active helps prevent people from becoming breathless during simple activities, increase muscle mass and strength, and maintain the balance people need to walk up stairs, for instance.
To investigate how important exercise is to older adults, Visser"s team interviewed 3,075 men and 20 between the ages of 70 and 79, all of whom said they had no problems walking one-quarter of a mile or climbing 21 . The investigators followed the subjects for 4.5 years, noting who developed problems 22 and climbing stairs.
During the study, 34 percent of men and 47 23 of women said they began to struggle with walking and climbing stairs. People 24 were inactive were twice as likely to report these problems as people who said they got regular exercise.
