CTV Morning Live découvre un nouveau calculateur de régime qui peut évaluer les habitudes alimentaires en 15 minutes avec la diététiste et co-auteure de Dietary Patten Calculator, Adelia Jacobs !
Des chercheurs de l'Université d'Ottawa ont créé l'outil en ligne pour les plus de 55 ans. La démence touche environ 7,1 % de la population âgée du Royaume-Uni et environ un tiers des personnes âgées de plus de 85 ans.
Selon l'équipe de l'Hôpital d'Ottawa et de l'Université d'Ottawa, il n'y a pas de traitement ni de traitement pour la démence, mais un tiers des personnes qui ont développé la maladie auraient pu retarder ou arrêter l'apparition en changeant leur mode de vie.
Could Ottawa become Canada’s – or the world’s – healthiest city? Today, Brigitte Pellerin looks at this city’s own answer to the Fitbit and other means of measuring wellbeing.
Libby est accompagnée d'experts pour discuter du « dernier tabou », du sujet inconfortable de notre propre mortalité, du deuil et de ce qui fait une bonne mort.
“We think patients have the right to their own information to tell them about what is going to happen to them. We still live in a paternalistic society where we don’t think the patient can handle that information or don’t think they should have this information.”
"Unhealthy behaviours place a major burden on Canadian life expectancies."
"They found the calculator can accurately discriminate cardiovascular disease risk for a wide range of health profiles without the aid of clinical measures."
“I found myself going back and recalclating my life expectancy with health choices: more exercise, more vegetables. Do you think the calculator changes behaviour?”
“That first step that you take if you’re completely sedentary makes such a huge impact on your life.”
“I'm always surprised by the magnitude of this,” says Manuel. “I've been doing this for a while but still I'm always surprised by how much healthy living actually does affect your health."
"People who are in high pollution areas like Toronto or Windsor will find that their new life expectancy will be lower, and if you're living in low air pollution levels your life expectancy will be higher.”
"It’s somewhat surprising given that there are regulations on long-term care homes and how care is provided in these homes, but it’s pretty apparent from our study that there still remains systematic differences."
"We're trying to debunk some of the myths that commonly accompany sodium by showing people there are several sources of sodium in their diet."
“We know that Canadians are eating too much salt. But the calculator helps zero in on the exact sources in their diet that are responsible.”
