인구 고령화는 세계적 추세이지만, 특히 한국과 일본은 현저하게 빠른 증가 속도로, 2050년 일본이 세계 1위, 한국이 세계 2위로 전망되고 있다. 본 연구는 한국과 일본의 고령자 일상생활활동의 건강성에 관한 실태와 비교 분석을 통해 사회, 문화 및 노인 인구 증가 속도 등 여러 면에서 우리나라와 유사점을 가지고 있으면서도 노인 문제를 우리보다 약 20년 정도 앞선 경험으로 고령화 대책이 구체적인 일본 노인복지를 통하여 한국 노인 문제에 다양한 시사점을 제시하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 한국과 일본 각각 양국가의 언어로 번역된 설문지를 사용하여, 한일 65세 이상 노인 603명과 267명을 연구대상으로 하였다. 훈련된 연구 조사원들을 통해 일대일 면접 방식으로 한국의 노인복지관과 노인대학과 센터 등에서, 일본의 시니어클럽연합회와 사회복지법인의 자원봉사 그룹, 고령자 생협 소속 노인들에게 조사되었다. 이를 통해, 행복한 노년기를 위한 인간존엄의 근원적 테마로 다양한 시사점을 제시하였다.

우리나라는 현재 65세 이상 인구가 전체 인구의 7.1%에 달하고 있으며 앞으로 계속 증가하여 2022년에는 14.3%로 고령화 사회에 접어들 것으로 여겨진다. 1998년 국민 건강영양조사에 의하면, 우리나라 노인은 영양취약집단으로 영양상 문제가 발견되었으며, 청장년기까지는 식생활의 부족시대를 지니고, 중년이후의 풍요로움을 누린 후 노년기를 맞고 있는 전체 인구 집단과 또 다른 문제를 보이고 있어 관리가 요구된다. 노인의 경우 여러 가지 신체기능의 변화와 사회생활의 변화로 영양요구량이 달라지고 있으며, 신체기능의 변화는 식품섭취에 영향을 주고 있어서 적절한 관리를 필요로 한다. 그래서 10월의 이달의 건강길라잡이에서는 첫째, 노년층의 영양 무제가 다른 연령층과 어떻게 다른가 이해하고 둘째, 노년기의 노화 현상이 노인들의 건강문제와 영양문제에 어떤 영향을 미칠 것인가 살펴보고 셋째, 일반적으로 노년기의 영양필요량이 청 · 장년기의 영양 필요량과 무엇이 다른가 이해한 후 마지막으로 노인의 식생활을 어떻게 계획할 것인가 알아보고자 한다.
