Better food for a better life Research unit of the project: “Healthy aging: Activating resources for sustainable lifestyles”

Project Communication on the possible risks and benefits of food choices plays an important role in maintaining health and psycho-physical well-being among the elderly. Such communication can be effective when there is a balanced combination between contents, how they are presented and the characteristics of the chosen target. Our research project consists of a series of experimental studies in which elderly participants are presented with different types of messages on the influence of nutrition on health and well-being. The effectiveness of these messages is then evaluated through various measures.

Aims 1.To highlight the best communicative strategies to persuade the elderly to adopt preventive healthy eating behaviors. 1.To analyze the individual characteristics of potential recipients that might support or hinder the effectiveness of health-promoting com- munication. 1.To investigate how cognitive, social and contextual factors influence the actual enactment of the recommended healthy eating behaviors.

Applications Promoting lifestyles and healthy eating habits, in line with the topics of Expo Providing guidelines for the creation of effective communication campaigns to enhance nutritional competences and preventive behaviors among the elderly. Supporting the promotion of well-being among the elderly.
