摘要
Purpose of Review: The purpose of this paper was to review multiple levels of risk factors related to obesity among older Latino adults aged 65 years and over. Recent Findings: Obesity disproportionately affects Latino older adults. Multiple obesity-related risk factors among Latino older adults have been identified through qualitative and quantitative research. Risk factors at each of the levels of the socio-ecological model include biological predispositions, lifestyle and behaviors, social support from family members, access to recreational facilities, and public policies that support tailored and effective prevention and treatment programs. Summary: This review outlines several key obesity-related risk factors among Latino older adults which can be targeted for future research and for tailoring obesity prevention clinical practice. © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.
