Detaljert beskrivelse
Poor nutritional status of older persons may predispose them to increased risk of upper respiratory tract infection, which however should be amenable to reduction by multi micro-nutrient supplementation. For becoming a successful healthy aging individual, the interrelationship between endogenous and exogenous factors must be positive and balanced. Introducing multi micro-nutrients through supplementation is an alternative which ensures a balanced micro-nutrient intake for enhancing the immune response and at the same time possibly enhancing the quality of life of the healthy free-living elderly individual.
The role of nutritional intervention strategies have been shown to be beneficial in the prevention of infectious disease among the older population in order to reduce the burden of diseases, and also could prevent micro-nutrient deficiency and enhance immune response of older persons.
The present study is related to primary prevention activities which aim to enhance the health status of the subjects, in particular to reduce the incidence and prevalence rate of infectious diseases, especially of upper respiratory tract infection. Supplementation is operationally achievable for implementation at the health center and could be set within the existing programs for older persons.
