Discussion Post: Nutrition
As we age, our bodies cannot process nutrients as well as they once did. Nutrition requirements also change. Discuss the reasons why our aging bodies change with respect to nutrient metabolism (either macronutrients or micronutrients) and give one specific example of recommendations that either increase/decrease. What recommendation would you make to an elderly person who needed more/less of this nutrient - how can they meet the recommendation?
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
