Popis: | Many older adults eat poorly balanced diets and are physically inactive, posing a risk to their cardiovascular and mental health. The benefits of healthful living extend beyond cardiovascular health and disease risk reduction such that physical activity has been shown to positively affect mood state. This was a cross-sectional investigation completed at three senior lunch program sites in Charlotte, NC to assess the status and relationship of nutrition, physical activity patterns, and mood state in older adults, prior to the center offering a new nutritional and physical activity intervention. Some significant relationships between cardiovascular indicators and mood were found. |
