Manage episode 398268148 series 3304654
Do you have someone in your life, who you're concerned might be undereating?
Many seniors in our society think that lower appetite, losing weight, and getting chronic conditions are all a part of "normal" aging. There are some schools of thought that suggest aging is a disease, since, if an individual continues to have a healthy lifestyle, they can actually slow down the biological clock on health demise.
Michelle Saari, RD runs a business, called The Long Term Care RD to help older people, their families, and other dietitians, learn more about the importance of nutrition in later years of life. We discuss signs and symptoms to look out for to identify if someone has malnutrition. We talk about maintaining health and quality of life long into the golden years and that malnutrition is not inevitable for every senior.
Strategies are shared to help elderly people improve their nutrition through diet and healthy lifestyle. This one is a good one to check out!
