| dc.description.abstract |
The Singapore Physical Activity and Nutrition Study examined the effectiveness of a randomised controlled trial to improve the physical activity (PA) and dietary behaviours, anthropometric and blood parameters among women 50 years and above. The intervention group attended a six-month PA and dietary program while the control group program received only a fall prevention pamphlet. The study was efficacious in improving PA and dietary behaviours, reducing body fat and blood pressure among the target group. | en_US |
