What this trial studies

This observational study focuses on assessing metabolic syndrome, frailty, locomotive syndrome, balance, and physical fitness in elderly individuals aged 65 and over. It aims to identify how various factors such as genetics, diet, physical activity, and age influence these health conditions. Participants will undergo a series of physical tests to evaluate their health status and identify potential risks associated with metabolic syndrome and frailty. The study seeks to enhance understanding of these conditions to improve health outcomes in the elderly population.
