Según la Organización Mundial de la Salud, la salud es el estado de bienestar y no sólo la ausencia de enfermedad. Conocer los determinantes del estado de bienestar de la población es necesario para definir estrategias de Salud Pública capaces de tener un efecto en la calidad de vida de las personas. Este proyecto pretende medir el impacto de la dieta sobre los indicadores de bienestar, que es uno de los aspectos menos estudiados de entre todos los determinantes del bienestar. En concreto, sería interesante examinar el efecto de la dieta mediterránea y alimentos concretos (café, bebidas azucaradas, lácteos) que han mostrado tener un efecto sobre el riesgo de enfermar y parece plausible que tengan también un efecto en el bienestar. Para ello se propone realizar un estudio prospectivo de una cohorte ya establecida de 3000 personas mayores de 60 años, con un periodo de seguimiento de 7 años en el momento de la realización de las mediciones propuestas. La dieta se medió con una historia dietética validada al principio del estudio y se volverá a medir para examinar si los cambios en la dieta influyen sobre los cambios en los indicadores de bienestar social objetivos (Índices de discapacidad de Lawton y Brody y Katz, Mini Examen Cognoscitivo) y subjetivos (Escala de Satisfacción General, General Health Questionnaire, Calidad de Vida Relacionada con la Salud). Este proyecto es relevante porque contribuiría a entender la relación entre dieta, salud y bienestar en la población mayor de España, un grupo en el que la presencia de enfermedad es prácticamente inevitable y por ello es especialmente importante conocer qué factores pueden mejorar sus niveles de bienestar.

According to the World Health Organisation, health is the welfare state and not just the absence of disease. Knowing the determinants of the welfare state of the population is necessary to define public health strategies capable of having an effect on people’s quality of life. This project aims to measure the impact of diet on well-being indicators, which is one of the least studied aspects of all determinants of well-being. In particular, it would be interesting to examine the effect of the Mediterranean diet and specific foods (coffee, sugary drinks, dairy) which have shown to have an effect on the risk of getting sick and it seems plausible that they also have an effect on well-being. To this end, it is proposed to carry out a prospective study of an established cohort of 3000 people over 60 years of age, with a follow-up period of 7 years at the time of the proposed measurements. The diet was measured with a validated dietary history at the beginning of the study and will be remeasured to examine whether dietary changes influence changes in objective social welfare indicators (Lawton and Brody and Katz disability indicators, Mini Cognoscitive Examination) and subjective (General Satisfaction Scale, General Health Questionnaire, Health-Related Quality of Life). This project is relevant because it would help to understand the relationship between diet, health and well-being in the elderly population of Spain, a group in which the presence of disease is practically inevitable and therefore it is especially important to know which factors can improve their well-being levels.
