It’s #malnutritionawarenessweek ! Good nutrition is essential for healthy development and basic survival, but it is also integral to well-being, disease prevention and treatment. 

According to Mayo Clinic:
Malnutrition in older adults can lead to various health concerns, including:

🍎A weak immune system, which increases the risk of infections
🍐Poor wound healing
🍉Muscle weakness and decreased bone mass, which can lead to falls and fractures
🍋A higher risk of hospitalization
🍓An increased risk of death
