BACKGROUND: The Philippines is transitioning into an ageing society soon.
Nutrition is one of the key determinants of healthy ageing and understanding the
dietary pattern of older adults is an important step for public health practice.
This study describes the dietary patterns of older Filipino adults and determines
the associated factors using the 2013 National Nutrition Survey (NNS) and
2018?2019 Expanded NNS (ENNS) datasets. METHODS: From both surveys, a combined
total of 11,306 older adults (??60 years old) were included in the analyses. Food
items from the two non-consecutive 24-h food recalls were classified into 17 food
groups and were analyzed using principal component analysis (PCA). Factor scores
derived from the PCA were used to determine adherence to the generated dietary
patterns. Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to determine factors
associated with adherence to the dietary patterns. RESULTS: Three major dietary
patterns, similar for both NNS and ENNS, were identified namely (1) meat-based;
(2) traditional rice and fish; and (3) vegetables, fruits and oil pattern. For
both surveys, the odds of adherence to the meat-based pattern were significantly
lower among females, adults aged 70 years and older, rural dwellers, and those
with low BMI, lower educational attainment, and lower socioeconomic status.
Sociodemographic, nutritional, and lifestyle factors were also associated in
varying degrees with adherence to the traditional and vegetables, fruits, and oil
patterns. CONCLUSION: Our study showed that the dietary patterns of older adults
in the Philippines were associated with sociodemographic factors, lifestyle, and
nutritional status. This study sheds light on understanding better the role of
sex, age, SES, educational attainment, and lifestyle factors, nutritional status
in influencing dietary patterns of older adults. Our findings make a valuable
contribution in crafting specific and timely nutrition-focused interventions for
the older population in support towards healthy aging. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
