Preferred term

gastrointestinal aging  

Definition(s)

  • Many age-related changes in gastrointestinal (GI) function are not due to aging alone. The presence of concurrent diseases (e.g., diabetes and atherosclerotic disease) may have more impact on GI tract function in older adults. [Source: Encyclopedia of Health & Aging; Gastrointestinal Aging]
