Collection: Nutrition for Disease Recovery
Personalized nutrition support during illness and recovery, with a focus on nutritional adequacy. Malnutrition is a common and often overlooked concern in chronic disease and later life, particularly among people over 70. Reduced appetite, difficulty eating, and changing nutritional needs can make it harder to get enough nourishment.
My approach supports:
- Reviewing food intake, appetite, weight changes, and individual nutritional needs
- Using medical nutritional food products, where appropriate, to help meet nutritional requirements
- Planning nutrient-dense, home-prepared meals and snacks as practical alternatives or additions
- Adapting portion sizes, meal frequency, and food textures to individual needs
- Supporting adequate energy, protein, and micronutrient intake
- Helping families and caregivers put manageable nutrition routines in place
I use medical nutritional food products or home-prepared, high-nutrition options according to each person's needs, preferences, and circumstances, with the aim of ensuring nutritional adequacy. My nutrition support complements medical care and provides a practical approach to nourishment throughout illness and recovery.
