State of nutrition, body composition and the dietary habits of obese women aged 60-85, students at the association of the third age university in Szczecin
This work aims at evaluation of nutritional status and diet of women whose BMI ≥ 25 (kg/m2) aged 60–69 and 70–85, students at The Third Age University in Szczecin. Nutritional status, body content, socioeconomic status, quantitative daily food rations (crp) and their resultant Glycemic Index (GI) and Glycemic Load (GL) were evaluated.
