The issue of optimal nutrition for the elderly in the general population is paramount. This book reviews the nutritional problems that occur with significant frequency in adults and the elderly. It examines the relative impacts of changes in social and financial status on the quality of treatment to the elderly.
Recognition and understanding of the special nutrition problems of the aged is changing along with the growing number of the elderly in the general population. In the eight years since the first edition of the Handbook of Nutrition in the Aged was originally published, both economic changes and health issues have contributed to the decreasing nutritional intake among the aged.
New treatments such hyperalimenation and renutrition are now accepted as ways to restore and maintain optimum immune functions.
Intended for gerentologists, nutritionists, dieticians and assisted living professionals, the third edition of Handbook of Nutrition in the Aged reviews some of the major nutritional problems occurring with significant frequency in elderly adults. Other topics discussed include the effects of the aging process, changes in social status, and financial conditions that significantly affect the approaches to treatment and study of nutritional and health problems of the aged.
