    Abstract:
    By the time someone reaches old age, he or she thinks they know everything they want, or need, to know about nutrition. Yet malnutrition and its many effects are a rising danger. In this first of two installments of a panel discussion, nutritional experts review practical concerns for the treating physician, including assessment, interpretation of weight loss, use of supplements, and the relevance of RDAs to the elderly.
