Conclusions：The results of this study shows that higher physical activity combining with higher FV consumption, which can effectively improve the quality of life of the elderly in Taiwan. This result highlights of the importance which were higher physical activity and higher FV consumption, this health behavior is safe, effective and cost-effective, and can save the country medical expenses.
