Balanced nutrition has a central role in physical health and quality of life for older adults. Our Senior Principal Dietitian, Mary-ann Chiam, highlights hydration, dietary diversity, including leafy greens, fruits, lean protein, and whole grains, moderate consumption of processed foods, portion control, and the selection of healthy fats. Customised nutrition plans should be developed in consultation with healthcare professionals or registered dietitians.
An Accredited Practicing Dietitian (SNDA) with over 22 years of experience, Mary-ann collaborates with elderly individuals in our care, utilising advanced scientific information, supporting caregivers, to meet changing nutritional needs and taste preferences.
