Kasetsart University Promotes Elderly Health Awareness

On October 30, 2026, Kasetsart University held a health seminar titled 'KU Synergy: Strong Bodies, Connecting Generations' at the Kampol Adulwit Conference Room. Organized by the Senior Kasetsart University Club and the Faculty of Nursing, the event aimed to educate the elderly on managing health and preventing sarcopenia—a condition involving the loss of muscle mass that impacts mobility and daily independence. According to Khaosod Online, the program featured expert insights from Police Lieutenant Colonel Dr. Worapol Charoenporn of the Police General Hospital, who provided guidance on proper nutrition and exercise. The initiative also emphasized the importance of intergenerational activities to foster social connections. For residents and visitors, this event highlights a growing institutional focus in Thailand on addressing the health challenges of an aging population. While the seminar provided valuable information on lifestyle adjustments to delay physical decline, it remains to be seen how these academic initiatives will be integrated into broader community health programs. Attendees were encouraged to adopt proactive health habits to maintain long-term vitality.
