Abstract

Introduction: Nutritional status is related to aging. Objective: To determine the relationship between albumin levels and nutritional status in older adults from Tlaxcala. Material and method: Cross-sectional study, in 31 people aged 60 to 65 years; 22.5% men and 77.5% women, albumin and BMI were determined, using the Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) instrument. Results:  74.20% had low albumin levels, 58.1% were overweight/obese, 9.7% were malnourished, and 67.7% were at risk of malnutrition due to MNA. Conclusions: At a general level, malnutrition prevailed, albumin values correlate with the different methods of anthropometric measurement of nutritional status.
