Physical exploration and nutrition

Clinical exploration, an indispensable part of nutritional assessment

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Nutritional assessment, as we all know, is essential in the area of nutrition, since it is through it that we know the state of health of the individual. The clinical exploration contributes a great part in this evaluation by the physical signs and symptoms based on the observation of those clinical changes related to an inadequate dietary intake, scarce or excessive, maintained in time and that can be detected in superficial epithelial tissues, organs and systems easily accessible to the physical exploration. In the interpretation of the findings it should be taken into account that most signs are a reflection of various nutritional deficiencies. It is not common for a single nutrient to cause specific signs. The ability to identify individuals with nutritional risks, as well as the advancement in the field of nutrition and the improvement of the overall quality of life, has made physical screening an important mechanism for the nutrition professional.
