LOCKDOWN INFLUENCE ON DIET AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY OF SENIORS; HAS IT WEIGHT CONSEQUENCES?

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Objectives: Many studies draw attention to the negative consequences of the pandemic or lockdown on the well-being and lifestyle of differentsections of the population. This study considers whether changes occurred in dietary regime and level of physical activity during three periods –before the pandemic, during the lockdown, and during the present in older Slovak adults. We also investigate whether individual weights changedduring the pandemic.Methods: The study has a cross-sectional design. We collected 436 questionnaires from older adults (60+) living in Slovakia; 277 come from thefirst phase of online data collection (04/2022–06/2022) in university students of the third age, and 159 from the second phase of offline collection(07/2022–11/2022) in social service facilities. We monitored if there were any changes within the observed periods in the variables of diet regime,physical activity, and BMI. The database has been processed in IBM SPSS Statistics.Results: During the lockdown, the frequency of physical activity decreased (p &lt; 0.001), the quality of movement worsened (p &lt; 0.001), and thetime respondents devoted to physical activity during the week decreased (p &lt; 0.001). At present, the variables have increased. Within the dietaryregimen, statistically significant changes occurred in appetite and non-alcoholic beverage intake (p = 0.002). However, there were no significantchanges in the number of daily meals (p = 0.190), or the amount of alcohol consumed (p = 0.066). The BMI of older men and women did not changeafter the pandemic (p = 0.519), and it did not differ between men and women either before the pandemic (p = 0.281) or after it (p = 0.449). Alsothere is no difference between UTA students and social facility living seniors before the pandemic (0.933) and now (0.317). The results showedthat even though physical activity significantly decreased during the lockdown, the older adults in our study did not eat more during the lockdown,nor did they gain weight. However, this probably had negative consequences for the quality of their movement.Conclusion: It is essential to simultaneously create compensatory measures while implementing future anti-epidemic (or other) measures. Theywould help maintain the desired amount of physical activity or other healthy habits on an optimal level.
