Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hunger is a serious threat facing millions of seniors in the United States. Despite this important public health threat, we know very little about the face of hunger among seniors, the causes of senior hunger, its consequences for the well-being of seniors, or what will happen in the next twenty years with respect to hunger among senior Americans. Although federally-funded programs including the Elderly Nutrition Program (ENP) and the Food Stamp Program are designed to address food security and nutritional needs among senior Americans, studies demonstrate high levels of need still exist among seniors. Thus, it is important to expand our understanding of hunger among seniors in order to help develop strategies to reduce it. With the generous financial support of a grant from the Meals On Wheels Association of America Foundation (MOWAAF) to the University of Kentucky Center for Poverty Research (UKCPR) and Iowa State University, in this report we analyzed the causes, consequences, and future of senior hunger in America.

Book excerpt: The problem that we are discussing today, food security among seniors, is both a moral issue and it is a financial issue. From a moral perspective, it is clear to me that in this great Nation no one should go hungry, especially those who are old and frail and unable to take care of themselves. From a financial perspective, what is also clear-and we will hear testimony about this this morning from our panelists-is that investing in senior nutrition and in well-designed senior programs in general saves money. When we make sure that our seniors have adequate nutrition, at the end of the day those seniors are not going to be ending up in a emergency room, those seniors are not going to be ending up in a hospital when they should not be in a hospital, and in many cases they're not going to be ending up in a nursing home.

This book was released on 2016-08-13 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Older adults are a growing demographic group in the United States, and a range of physical, social, financial, and cultural factors affect their nutritional status. Metabolic and physiologic changes that accompany normal aging modify the nutritional requirements of older adults. An examination of evidence is needed to better understand how nutritional status is associated with aging and risk of mortality or chronic disease among older adults. Underpinning many, if not most, nutritional problems in older adults is socioeconomic status. Therefore, understanding access challenges to healthy food, including geographic, financial, and transportation barriers, also is needed to better understand how to meet the nutritional needs of older adults. On October 28-29, 2015, the Food and Nutrition Board convened a workshop, Meeting the Dietary Needs of Older Adults, in Washington, DC. Participants examined factors in the physical, social, and cultural environment that affect the ability of older adults to meet their daily dietary needs. This report summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.
