For nearly 10 years, my body rebelled against my conventional low-fat, convenience food diet with IBS, intense anxiety, constant cravings, and chronic knee pain (all before the age of 25!). It wasn't until I learned about the healing power of a real food, anti-inflammatory diet and discovered some food sensitivities that I saw a dramatic relief in my digestive and joint symptoms, plus an improvement in how my brain functioned. Now, I am passionate about helping others find their own relief, breakthroughs, and successes in their journey of healing using simple, nutritious foods!

After more than 30 years in the field, my passion for nutrition continues. Seeing a client find relief from pain and exhaustion is a joy! Plus, I can relate to their desperation to get their life back. In 2005 I put my knowledge of nutrition to the test when, two weeks after invasive back surgery I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Shortly afterwards I discovered multiple food allergies. Once those were removed I stopped three prescription medications and feel better than I had in years. I absolutely love bringing that relief to clients!

Geriatric Nutritionists and Dietitians
How does nutrition affect aging?
Nutrition significantly influences the aging process through various interconnected mechanisms. As people age, they tend to accumulate more body fat due to muscle loss, which can compromise physical health and limit their ability to engage in sufficient physical activity. Additionally, older adults generally have lower calorie requirements compared to younger individuals. If coupled with poor dietary choices, this reduced calorie need can contribute to obesity, which not only accelerates aging but also places added stress on joints and the cardiovascular system. Consequently, inadequate nutrition can increase the risk of chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease and kidney disease, ultimately reducing life expectancy and overall health in older adults.
Why is nutrition important for older adults?
Nutrition is essential for the health and well-being of older adults. A balanced and nutrient-rich diet supports both physical and mental health, providing the necessary foundation for physical and mental strength. Proper nutrition is also crucial for wound healing and immune function, both of which are important for recovery from illnesses or injuries that may occur with aging. Additionally, targeted dietary modifications can help older adults manage chronic conditions and maintain their independence. For example, a diet low in sugar is beneficial for those with diabetes, while reducing sodium and saturated fats is important for those with cardiovascular disease. These dietary adjustments are critical at any age but are particularly vital for older adults, who may be at an increased risk of chronic conditions becoming more severe. Lastly, the social aspect of eating is also significant for older adults. Sharing meals with others or participating in communal dining settings can reduce social isolation and foster a sense of community.
What diet is best for geriatric patients?
There is no universally best diet for geriatric patients. However, experts generally recommend that older adults consume a balanced, plant-based diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat proteins. Since older adults typically have lower caloric needs compared to younger adults, it is often advised that they be mindful of portion sizes and limit the consumption of high-calorie foods, particularly those high in added sugars and saturated fats. Some older adults may not experience normal hunger cues, making it challenging for them to meet even their reduced caloric needs. In such cases, focusing on nutrient-dense and protein-rich foods—such as whole grains, lean meats, seafood, poultry, eggs, beans, and dairy—can be crucial to support healthy aging.
Why should older adults see a dietitian?
Seeing a dietitian can be highly beneficial for older adults, whether they have specific nutrition-related concerns or consider themselves mostly healthy. A dietitian can review a client's dietary intake, identify areas for improvement, and ensure adequate nutrient and caloric intake. They can also tailor dietary recommendations to address or prevent specific conditions. For example, older women at risk for osteoporosis may benefit from learning about vitamins and foods that support bone health. Additionally, aging can bring changes in taste, smell, and hunger cues, which can alter food preferences and make it difficult for older adults to enjoy food or meet their nutritional needs. A dietitian can help navigate these changes, offering suggestions on how to meet nutrient requirements through diet supplementation or creative recipes.
