Relationship between decreased activities of daily living, decreased physical strength and future weight loss in community‐dwelling older adults
An association was found between 3-year weight loss and physical fitness and IADL, such as walking, among community-dwelling older people. Future weight loss in older people can be caused by a decline in IADL and physical fitness before a decline in dietary intake. Furthermore, maintaining IADL and physical fitness can prevent future weight loss and frailty. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2025; 25: 418-424.
