Les régimes alimentaires chez le sujet âgé : est-ce bien raisonnable ?

The prescription of an alimentation must be individually adapted, and requires a gerontological and nutritional evaluation as well as an analysis of the profit-risk. For very old subjects, the consequences of the undernutrition amplify the risk of decompensation of chronic pathologies. The term of regime should be banished from the geriatric language and replaced by the term of adapted alimentation.
