A summary report has been published for the Nutrition &
Aging Think Tank event on May 20-21, hosted by the Schelegel-University of Waterloo
Research Institute for Aging (RIA) and the Agri-food for Healthy Aging (A-HA)
program.
Hosted by the same research group that is looking at the standardization of pureed foods, experts in
nutrition and aging converged in Waterloo to engage in a priority-setting
process to identify the key determinants of food intake in long-term care settings.
The determinants they prioritized included both psychosocial as well as
nutritional aspects of mealtimes such as social interactions, self-feeding
ability, assisting attitude, nutrition density and others.

prioritized by clicking on the link below.
