Why is age important while deciding a patient’s nutritional needs?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Body needs change according to age

Age affects energy needs, growth requirements, nutrient absorption, body composition, activity, and the ability to chew, swallow, or digest food. Children need nutrients for growth, adults need support for health and activity, and older adults may require adjustments for reduced appetite, illness, or absorption. Thus, age is an important factor in nutritional assessment, making option A correct.
