Gaps in care for older adults with #malnutrition are commonplace in our healthcare system, with nutritional care often dismissed when other care needs are present #olderpeople #agedcare

Can a brisk walk today really lower your #dementia risk years from now? 🧠 New research in @TheLancet Healthy Longevity followed nearly 1,000 older adults with wearable sensors and found that while physical activity 🏃‍♀️ is linked to lower dementia risk, the timing matters most. Using repeated measures over time, scientists discovered that the protective effect of #activity was strongest in the final two years before diagnosis - while baseline activity levels showed no link to dementia beyond seven years. This suggests that staying active in late life may help delay symptoms, even if brain changes have already begun. Does low activity cause dementia, or is it an early sign of disease? By showing that baseline cognitive status didn’t predict future declines in #physicalactivity, researchers argue that exercise likely acts as a protective factor - not just a reverse effect of disease. While more trials are needed, the takeaway is clear: it’s never too late to move. Staying active in your 80s could add years of healthy cognition. #fig3" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">thelancet.com/journals/lanhl…

Older adults do understand physical activity as a health priority, would like more information on it, and are willing to participate in remote assessment and management - including #Digitalhealth. Here's our new paper #healthcare #olderadult #aging aging.jmir.org/2026/1/e75791

The three major global threats to population health are non-communicable diseases (#NCDs), infectious disease outbreaks, and environmental degradation. A Lancet Commission provides a set of priority recommendations to address these threats. Read now 👉 spkl.io/6017AUMjF

Congratulation to #FIFSW Professor Amanda Grenier on joining the Lancet Commission on Frailty. Frailty is the foremost geriatric syndrome in older adults, and Grenier provides the Commission with a vital social work voice! thelancet.com/journals/lance…

Frailty poses a major public health challenge, yet it is a poorly understood condition globally. To address knowledge gaps and inform and develop effective public policy to prevent frailty, The Lancet announces a new Commission. Find out more ⬇️ hubs.li/Q03v0bwP0
