Medical Inpatients - Nutritional Therapy and Care

Medical inpatient is the term used to refer to someone who is admitted to a hospital for a brief or extended stay. Along with proper medication and treatment, it is critical that the inpatients are provided with the right type of nutrition and care since food is the primary source of nutrition. Nutritional therapy refers to the treatment based on nutrition, which involves checking a patient's nutritional status, and prescribing and providing the right foods or nutrients to treat different medical conditions. The human body breaks down the food to receive the molecules, such as carbohydrates, minerals, proteins, vitamins and fats. A patient's body must be able to metabolize and utilize the nutrients for supporting all body functions. If the body does not receive these nutrients, it becomes difficult for it to work properly. This book explores all the important aspects of nutritional therapy in the modern day. It covers in detail some strategies for the management of medical inpatients. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.
