tailieunhanh - Care Homes for Older People: FACILITIES, RESIDENTS AND COSTS

Each basic food group5 is the major contributor of at least one nutrient while making substantial contributions of many other nutrients. Because each food group provides a wide array of nutrients in substantial amounts, it is important to include all food groups in the daily diet. Both illustrative eating patterns include a variety of nutrien dense foods within the major food groups. Selecting a variety of foods within the grain, vegetable, fruit, and meat groups may help to ensure that an adequate amount of nutrients and other potentially beneficial substances are consumed. For example, fish contains varying amounts of fatty acids that may be beneficial in reducing cardiovas­ cular disease risk (see ch. 6). Nutrient­Dense Foods Nutrient­dense foods are those foods that provide substan tial amounts of vitamins and minerals (micronutrients) and relatively few calories. Foods that are low in nutrient density are foods that supply calories but relatively small amounts of micronutrients, sometimes none at all. The greater the consumption of foods or beverages that are low in nutrient density, the more difficult it is to consume enough nutrients without gaining weight, especially for sedentary individuals. The consumption of added sugars, saturated and trans fats, and alcohol provides calories while providing little, if any, of the essential nutrients. (See ch. 7 for additional information on added sugars, ch. 6 for information on fats, and ch. 9 for information on alcohol.) . | Care Homes for Older People VOLUME 1 FACILITIES RESIDENTS AND COSTS PSSRU Ann Netten Andrew Bebbington Robin Darton and Julien Forder at the University of Kent at Canterbury the London School of Economics and the University of Manchester Care Homes for Older People Volume 1 Facilities Residents and Costs Ann Netten Andrew Bebbington Robin Darton and Julien Forder PSSRU at the University of Kent at Canterbury the London School of Economics and the University of Manchester 2001 Personal Social Services Research Unit ISBN 1-902671-24-4 First published in 2001 by the Personal Social Services Research Unit University of Kent at Canterbury.
