Description
Lidija Šoher and a large team report in 2026 the first national picture of what older Croatians eat, drawn from a food consumption survey using European methods. Nearly eight hundred people aged sixty-five and over gave diet records, activity answers, and body measurements.
Only about a fifth sat in the normal weight range, while the rest were overweight or obese. The younger group, aged sixty-five to seventy-four, differed from those seventy-five and older in energy and nutrient intake. Body mass shaped intake in the younger group, while activity level mattered more in the older group. Both groups fell short on nutrient-rich foods and fluids, giving health planners clear targets for healthy-ageing programmes.
