Description
Geriatric Nutrition: The Health Professional’s Handbook, Third Edition, offers an authoritative reference to help you understand the role of nutrition in the maintenance of health, the management of chronic conditions, and the treatment of serious illness. The Third Edition of this best-selling text provides a comprehensive review of nutritional assessment, intervention programs for the elderly, and health promotion activities.
There are 23 contributors including the editor, all with a strong background in geriatrics, or nutrition and dietetics, or both. Three major areas are covered: basic nutritional requirements of the elderly, a body systems approach to age-related changes and relationship to nutritional needs, and six chapters on related topical areas including pharmacology and nutrition, nutritional support and services, nutrition and exercise in the elderly, and health promotion. Several chapters have been completely revised, including the gastrointestinal tract and health promotion. New chapters have been added on taste and smell changes in the elderly, as well as nutritional aspects of exercise.
