Ageism is a form of prejudice, like racism, in that older adults are stereotyped by characteristics found in only a few members of their age group. In ageism, older adults are viewed as different and without the same desires, needs, and concerns as others.

Health promotion activities for the middle adult include a diet low in fat and cholesterol that includes fruits, vegetables, and fiber; regular daily exercise; drinking alcohol in moderation; and no smoking.
