Nutrition and older people: a matter of concern.

The government sets as one of its targets in Health of the Nation the need to enable more people to live not only longer but also well. This depends to a large extent on good nutrition, which is integral to the overall health, independence and quality of life of older people. However, when considering older people it is important to remember that they are a heterogenous group reaching different stages of ageing at different ages. Why this should be is unknown, but it means that chronological age is not indicative of either health or nutritional needs, both of which may vary considerably. There are, however, common factors that are known to predispose older people to nutritional deficiency.

Food intolerance defined.

Adverse reactions to food have long been recognised and concern about food and its components has now reached almost epidemic proportions. However, although intolerance to food and food components is not uncommon, there is a tendency to think that all adverse reactions to food are allergies. It is clear, however, that if allergy is taken to imply a specific immune reaction only a minority of unpleasant reactions to food are true 'allergic responses'. This paper explores the issues involved in this complex subject.
