TLDR
In this paper, a review highlights the role of nutrition science in promoting healthy aging and highlights the Mediterranean Model demonstrated to be a useful style in supporting healthy aging, promotion of this correct lifestyle by health policies seems to be the best approach to achieve this target.Abstract:
The World elderly population is expected to double before 2050. Unhealthy habits and unhealthy lifestyles are commonly associated with age-related diseases or their worsening. Modification in daily lifestyle and diet may help preventing age-related diseases onset and efficiently affecting their evolution, thus promoting the Healthy Aging process, concept recently coined to describe the disease-free aging process. This review highlights the role of nutrition science in promoting healthy aging. Since the Mediterranean Model demonstrated to be a useful style in supporting healthy aging, promotion of this correct lifestyle by health policies seems to be the best approach to achieve this target.read more

The Aging Brain
TL;DR: Current models of pathogenesis do not explain the origin of the common sporadic forms of these diseases or address the critical nexus between aging and disease, so potential approaches to unifying the systems biology of the aging brain with the pathogenesis of neurodegeneration are discussed.
