About this Research Topic
In the research topic, we want to focus on how a healthy diet, food groups or dietary compounds and other lifestyle factors such as physical activity can affect cognitive decline and dementia, and other age-related conditions such as frailty and sarcopenia.
In the research topic, we want to focus on how diet and physical activity can affect age-related conditions such as frailty, sarcopenia, cognitive decline and dementia. Since precision prevention has emerged as a paradigm to improve health in the post-genome era, we are particularly, but not exclusively, interested in papers focusing on healthy ageing and the interpersonal differences in response to food and physical activity. This implies also the underlying mechanisms causing differential responses. We want to focus both on human studies, and animal experiments, and authors can submit both original papers and reviews.
Keywords: inflammation, frailty, dementia, cognitive decline, sarcopenia
