A Small Research Study into Low Caloric and Low Vitamin and Mineral Intake Among the Elderly
This 8-page graduate essay considers the reasons behind low vitamin and mineral intake among the elderly. Broadly, the study outlined here aimed to consider the correlation between three factors and low caloric intake among the elderly. That is, this study firstly looked at the correlation between conceptions of nutrition and caloric and vitamin intake. Secondly, this study looked at environmental factors and caloric and vitamin intake. Finally, this study examined the link between factors of choice - such as mobility, economics, and medical necessity - as factors affecting low calorie and nutrient intake among the elderly. The findings of the study suggest that environment and, most of all, support systems, create the most important conditions for adequate caloric and vitamin intakes. The paper suggests that closer monitoring of support systems for the elderly and closer monitoring of environments in which the elderly reside can help the elderly consume more calories and thus higher amounts of vitamins and minerals.
