Fat-free mass or lean body mass tends to shrink in old age. This results in significantly decreased need for calories, vitamins, and minerals.
_____ True _____ False
To examine: Whether the statement “Fat-free mass or lean body mass tends to shrink in old age. This result in significantly decreased need for calories, vitamins, and minerals” is true or false.
Introduction: The ageing process is often associated with a change in the nutritional requirement of a person. The requirement for energy decreases however the requirement for some essential nutrients increases.
In old age, there is a shift in the composition of the musculoskeletal system of the body with decreased lean body mass. Therefore, the energy required per kilogram of body weight also decreases and there is a significant decrease in the amount of calories required to be consumed...
