Students learn the symptoms of each disease and how to prevent them by consuming a nutritious diet.
Undernutrition
Undernutrition refers to being underweight, stunted, or wasted due to insufficient food intake and recurrent infections. Stunting reflects a failure to reach linear growth potential from chronic undernutrition and generally occurs before age 2. Wasting reflects low body weight in relation to height and indicates acute undernutrition from recent food deprivation or illness. Common indicators used to measure undernutrition include stunting, wasting, and being underweight.
Nutrition in older adults

It also discusses types of prevention and concludes that good nutrition is important for older adult health.
Protein energy malnutrition
Malnutrition is a condition that develops from an imbalance between the nutrients the body needs and the nutrients supplied through diet. The main types of protein-energy malnutrition are marasmus and kwashiorkor. Marasmus is characterized by severe wasting and loss of muscle and fat tissue due to low energy intake. Kwashiorkor is caused by low protein intake and presents with edema, skin changes, and hair discoloration. Prevention strategies include promoting breastfeeding, education on proper nutrition, immunization, and early diagnosis and treatment.
Eat High Energy Foods
Eating high energy foods like fish, nuts, seeds, whole grains, fruits and vegetables, legumes, and green tea can provide sustained energy throughout the day. The document recommends consuming less coffee, sugar, and simple carbs, and instead focusing on lean proteins, whole grains, fruits and vegetables, legumes and sprouts at each meal for optimal energy levels. High energy, nutrient-dense foods are encouraged over empty calorie snacks and drinks.
Iodine
Iodine is a mineral needed to produce thyroid hormones which regulate metabolism. It is found in fish, dairy, and seafood. During pregnancy, adequate iodine is important for the baby's brain development.

The document then discusses how certain drugs can impact nutrition and how pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics are altered in elderly patients due to changes in absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of drugs. Geriatric services available are summarized, including informal care, health care services, rehabilitation programs, and long-term care facilities like nursing homes.
Food for Thought and Wellness
The document discusses the relationship between inflammation and diet. It states that inflammation is the body's immune response, but can become harmful if prolonged. Certain foods and nutrients can increase inflammation, such as saturated and trans fats, simple sugars, and an imbalance of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids. Conversely, the Mediterranean diet is highlighted as an anti-inflammatory pattern due to its emphasis on olive oil, fruits, vegetables, nuts, fish and whole grains. The document provides recommendations for reducing inflammation through diet, such as avoiding inflammatory foods while increasing intake of vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and omega-3s.
4s6_malnutrition (student)
Malnutrition is caused by an unbalanced diet that lacks or has an excess of certain nutrients. There are two types: undernutrition, which is a deficiency in one or more nutrients, and overnutrition, which is overeating or excessive intake of specific nutrients. Malnutrition can lead to diseases like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and respiratory problems. It is important to practice good eating habits like eating a variety of nutritious foods according to individual requirements and avoiding junk and fast foods in order to maintain a balanced diet and prevent malnutrition.
Nutritional requirements of elderly & dietary management
The nutritional needs of the elderly change as they age. Their energy requirements decrease due to lower metabolism and activity levels. They require less carbohydrates, proteins and fats but enough vitamins, minerals, fiber and fluids. Their diets should focus on antioxidant rich foods to support immunity and bone health while avoiding high salt, spice or gas-forming foods which are hard to digest. Ensuring proper nutrition through balanced meals helps promote healthy aging.
Nutrition and the Elderly Presentation
This document discusses nutrition and its importance for the elderly. It notes that malnutrition is a significant risk for elderly individuals, especially those in long-term care facilities, where 50-70% leave 1/4 or more of their food uneaten. Inadequate nutrition can lead to weight loss, pressure ulcers, infections, functional and cognitive decline, and increased mortality. Proper nutrition is important for overall health, but the elderly have specific nutritional needs due to changes in metabolism and increased risk of conditions like osteoporosis and heart disease. Factors like swallowing difficulties and dementia can also impact nutrition for elderly individuals.

Micro Nutrients and their Deficiency by Dr. Sookun Rajeev Kumar
Micronutrients such as vitamins and minerals are essential for human growth, health and development. Certain vitamins like A, D, C, B vitamins and minerals like iron and zinc must be obtained through diet as humans cannot synthesize them in sufficient amounts. Deficiencies of these micronutrients can lead to various health conditions. For example, vitamin A deficiency causes xerophthalmia and increases risk of infections; iron deficiency leads to anemia; and zinc deficiency is associated with skin lesions and impaired immunity. Diagnosis of deficiencies is based on clinical signs and symptoms as well as laboratory investigations. Treatment involves dietary modifications and supplementation to correct the deficiencies.
