Lizeth is a young woman who has an office job that does not involve a lot of movement throughout the day. She struggles with finding enough time to exercise and does not eat a balanced diet. Why is Lizeth at higher-than-normal risk for a fall?

Lizeth’s limited activity may mean she gets too little strengthening exercise, which can reduce muscle strength and stability. Her unbalanced diet may also lead to nutritional deficiencies that affect her health and physical function. Together, these factors can increase her risk of falling; the question does not say that she takes sedatives or works in a high-risk environment.
