Description
The shift of Japanese eating habits from salty and grain-based consumption with low animal protein to a diet with a variety of lipids and animal products after Second World War has significantly reduced the rate of infections and cerebral bleeding. On the other hand, the increase in life-style related diseases such as cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes has become a serious problem in our country. However, it is difficult to discuss the nutrition of the elderly in a stereotype because of the diversity in physical and psychological feature. Although there are many important issues that require discussions encompassing broad aspects in taking high protein diet as a main topic, it may be possible to consider a question in the aspects of body weight or body composition in the elderly. In this section, we discuss the ‘secret key’ in nutrition to health for the aged.
