与许多国家一样，英国的人口老龄化问题。随着年龄的增长，变化会影响食物选择和饮食习惯。这项研究探讨了老年人对饮食行为的认知和实践，以及影响他们晚年食物选择的因素。在英国一座城市与30名年龄在63-90岁的人进行了半结构化焦点小组讨论。采用归纳主题方法进行数据分析，出现了4个主题和12个分主题：与年龄有关的变化(食欲降低、食物变化、身体机能下降)；食物获取(食物成本、食物支持、保持独立性)；自己(为一个人做饭、独自用餐、为一个人购物)；以及与食物的关系(食物种类、吃你想吃的东西、节食)。这些因素影响了参与者的食物获取、食物准备和烹饪，以及饮食习惯。在许多讨论中强调了独居及其重大影响，以及相关的社会孤立和孤独。考虑到可能对营养摄入的影响，建议在这一领域进行进一步的工作。同样，应采取措施改善获得食物的机会，增加共生进食的机会，并从根本上解决老年人的社会孤立和孤独问题。
The United Kingdom, in common with many countries, has an ageing demographic. Changes accompanying ageing can influence food choice and dietary habits. This study explored older adults’ perceptions and practices related to dietary behaviour and the factors influencing their food choice in later life. Semi-structured focus-group discussions were conducted with 30 individuals (aged 63–90 years) in a UK city. An inductive thematic approach was adopted for data analysis, and 4 themes and 12 sub-themes emerged: age-related changes (lower appetite, food changes, declining physical function); food access (food cost, support with food, maintaining independence); on your own (cooking for one, eating alone, shopping for one); and relationship with food (food variety, eating what you want, dieting). These influenced participants’ food acquisition, food preparation and cooking, as well as eating habits. Living alone and its substantial influence, as well as associated social isolation and loneliness, were highlighted in many of the discussions. Given the possible implications for nutritional intake, further work is recommended in this area. Likewise, steps should be taken to improve food access, increase opportunities for commensal eating and, fundamentally, address social isolation and loneliness in the older population.
