Sensory Alteration and Dietary Consumption in Elderly Individuals
Keywords:
nutrition, dietary intake, appetite, neurosensation, ageing, elderlyAbstract
A sensible diet is necessary for human health across all ages. Adequate and appropriate food intake is important. Even so, many factors can contribute to changes in eating habits and result in malnutrition, sensory alteration can be an essential cause. Dietary sensations play an important role in dietary desire and satisfaction. The sensory properties of food affect the perception, translation, and pleasure of food via the sensory systems (e.g. vision, olfaction, taste, somatosensory function, and auditory system) and influence quantity and quality of dietary consumption. In elderly people, there is a sensory alteration that is a consequence of aging, illness, malnutrition, underlying diseases, and adverse effects of treatment changes the dietary consumption and increases risk of nutritional impairment in this population. Understanding sensory alteration and nutritional care to increase appetite of food and environmental modification impacts appropriate intake and prevents diseases and malnutrition in elderly individuals.
