Who Might Benefit from Nutrition Support?
Nutrition support may be helpful when changes in your health, appetite or ability to eat make it harder to get the nutrition you need.
Unintentional weight loss, reduced strength or increasing frailty may be signs that your nutritional needs are not being met.
Changes in appetite, swallowing or your ability to eat can make maintaining good nutrition more difficult.
The right nutrition can be particularly important when rebuilding strength following illness, surgery or a hospital stay.
Some people may require prescribed oral supplements or enteral nutrition when their nutritional needs cannot be met through their usual diet.
