           Foreword
           Nutrition deserves special attention as people reach older age and is essential for good 
           health. Healthy ageing is associated with physiological, cognitive, social and lifestyle 
           changes that influence dietary intakes and nutritional status.
           This policy advice is aimed at the majority of older New Zealanders who largely maintain 
           physical, mental and social health and independence through most of their lifespan. 
           However, even healthy older people are likely to have experienced some decline in physical 
           function and with advancing age may experience a loss of independence. This background 
           paper provides advice that recognises the higher burden of chronic disease that older 
           people experience and incorporates advice on healthy eating and physical activity for 
           those who are frail.
           The paper brings together all the key areas of food and nutrition affecting the health of 
           older people. It is intended for use by health practitioners, educators and caregivers, so 
           they can provide sound advice and support to older people and their families in regard to 
           maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
           Food and Nutrition Guidelines for Healthy Older People: A background paper assists health 
           practitioners to provide advice that enables older people to lead longer, healthier and more 
           independent lives. This paper is part of the series of population group-specific background 
           papers that ensure food and nutrition messages are based on sound evidence.
