Summary: | <p><b>OBJECTIVES:</b> This study aims to trace the elderly nutritional profile in both genders for those subjects living in Juvino Barreto Institute, institution for long-term care.<br> <b>METHODS:</b> It was used the Mini-Nutritional Assessment (MAN) and anthropometric datas such as weight and height, to obtain the body mass index (BMI) and evaluation analysis of the nutritional composition of nutrients in the meals offered to the elderly in accordance with the Dietary Reference Intakes - DRIs (2002) for energy, macro and micronutrients.<br> <b>RESULTS:</b> The results showed a high incidence of malnutrition and risk of malnutrition among the elderly, 32% by MAM and 53% by Lipschitz. It is known that the need of energy decreases and the need of protein, vitamins and minerals remain the same or even increase as the human body gets old. In this way, this study revealed a worrying fact concerning the mismatches presented in both: in macro and in micronutrients, shown by analysis of the menus offered by the institution for the elderly.<br> <b>CONCLUSIONS:</b> There is a need for nutritional care of aged people, in order to meet the nutritional, physiological and functional demands that the old age requires.</p> |
