Lack of cooking skills linked to higher mortality
A recent study indicates that a decline in the ability to perform daily tasks such as shopping and cooking is linked to an increased risk of death. People who faced greater difficulties with these tasks were several times more likely to die than those who maintained their abilities. The study, conducted on over 3,000 individuals over the age of 45 in South Korea between 2006 and 2014, focused on essential independence skills such as using transportation, paying bills, and remembering medication schedules. Researchers found that deterioration in performing these tasks could lead to health issues like dementia, weakness, and malnutrition, underscoring the importance of monitoring and maintaining daily skills among the elderly to prevent health risks and potential mortality.
