What is Malnutrition?
Malnutrition is an imbalance between the nutrients your body needs to function and the nutrients it gets. It can mean undernutrition or overnutrition. One out of 2 older adults are at risk for malnutrition.
Why it Matters
Being malnourished can contribute to:

Weakened immune system;
Poor wound healing;
Increased risk of hospitalization;
Vitamin deficiencies;
Reduced GI function; and/or,
Increased risk of death.

The first event will be held at 11 a.m., May 15th at the Rochester Senior Center.
