Abstrakt: Background: Diet and exercise interventions have been associated with improved body composition and physical fitness. However, evidence regarding their combined effects in older adults is scarce. This study aimed to investigate the impact of a combined 12-week Mediterranean diet-based sustainable healthy diet (SHD) and multicomponent training (MT) intervention on body composition, anthropometry, and physical fitness in older adults.
Methods: Diet intervention groups received a weekly SHD food supply and four sessions, including a SHD culinary practical workshop. The exercise program included MT 50 min group session, three times a week, on non-consecutive days. Body composition and physical fitness variables were assessed through dual X-ray absorptiometry, anthropometric measurements, and senior fitness tests. Repeated measures ANOVA, with terms for group, time, and interaction, was performed.
Results: Our results showed that a combined intervention significantly lowered BMI and total fat. Also, significant differences between assessments in all physical fitness tests, except for aerobic endurance, were observed. Adjusted models show significant differences in BMI ( p = 0.049) and WHR ( p = 0.037) between groups and in total fat ( p = 0.030) for the interaction term. Body strength ( p < 0.001), balance tests ( p < 0.001), and aerobic endurance ( p = 0.005) had significant differences amongst groups. Considering the interaction term, differences were observed for upper body strength ( p = 0.046) and flexibility tests ( p = 0.004 sit and reach, p = 0.048 back scratch).
Conclusions: Our intervention study demonstrates the potential of implementing healthy lifestyle and sustainable models to promote healthy and active aging.
