Abstract

Background: This study aims to examine how children's hunger is affected by aquatic exercise. The hypothalamus and brainstem are the sites of several peripheral signals that regulate appetite and eating behavior in response to food intake. These feedback signals involve several gut hormones, such as ghrelin, peptide YY (PYY), and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). Ghrelin is released several hours after working out in the water, which increases appetite Methods: Using the total sampling approach, a pre-test and post-test design was employed for a set of 29 respondents. For eight weeks, aquatic exercise is done once a week Results: According to the study's findings, children's appetite is influenced by water-based exercise in three ways: with a significance value of 0.000 for their desire to enjoy food, a significance value of 0.046 for their reactions to it, and a significance value of 0.025 for their picky eating habits Conclusions: As a result, playing in the water might make kids more hungry and want to savor every meal. As a result, kids who exercise in the water on a daily basis run a possibility of becoming excessively fed

Background: Aging is typically accompanied by physical and physiological decline, which causes people to act or refrain from engaging in a variety of activities, including those that are related to balance. Elderly people who have balance and coordination issues are more likely to fall. Objective To ascertain the proportion of senior citizens residing in the neighborhood. Method: An observational descriptive study was used for this investigation. Results of the Study: The average age of the 83 respondents was 66.86 years. According to the TUG Test, 90.36% of senior citizens are at little risk of falling. 91.57% of the elderly have a low risk of falling, according to the four square test; 83.13% of the elderly have normal balance, according to the FRT; and 54.22% of the elderly have normal balance, according to the FUKUDA. Conclusion : older people in metropolitan areas are well-balanced. This research highlights the value of a caring communal setting and easy access to medical resources in enhancing the well-being and equilibrium of senior citizens. Therefore, in order to build an age-friendly community and support the mobility and balance of the old, initiatives to improve their welfare must take a comprehensive approach that incorporates physical, social, and environmental components.
