Envelhecimento e Alterações do Estado Nutricional

Abstract

O Brasil vem passando por mudanças consideráveis na distribuição etária da sua população, sendo os idosos responsáveis por quase 15 milhões de habitantes. Aliada a essa realidade, encontra-se uma série de desordens nutricionais nesse segmento populacional. Este estudo tem por finalidade destacar as alterações da senescência que repercutem sobre o estado nutricional do idoso, fundamentar uma abordagem atualizada sobre os principais métodos de avaliação nutricional utilizados no idoso e identificar o perfil nutricional do idoso brasileiro. O trabalho foi realizado por meio de uma revisão da literatura publicada no período de 1987 até 2009, sendo baseado na pesquisa em livros-textos e em bases de dados do SciELO, Lilacs e Medline. Mediante o estudo, foi possível observar que os distúrbios nutricionais estão cada vez mais prevalentes entre os idosos, estando a obesidade em curva ascendente mais significativa. Em relação aos métodos de avaliação nutricional, não existe um método considerado padrão-ouro, devendo-se considerar as alterações fisiológicas do envelhecimento durante todo o processo de avaliação nutricional do idoso.
