seniors' catering

With increasing age, there is a significant reduction in physical and mental capacity. As a result, seniors often tend towards one-sided or unbalanced nutrition which leads to malnutrition and further reduction in bodily function. A balanced, appropriately adjusted diet (reduced energy requirements but unchanged vitamin and mineral requirements) is important in order to maintain health and quality of life. The diet must also be adapted to individual needs.
