Energy Dense Formula to People Living in Old Peoples Home

Dietary intake in frail elderly is often lower than estimated needs due to the combined effects of the anorexia of ageing, frailty and the presence of acute and chronic disease. The objectives of the present study are to assess the effects of an oleic acid rich formula fortified with micronutrients on energy intake, vitamin- and mineral status, muscle strength and mobility. The investigators have recently performed a similar study in an acute ward setting without micronutrients.
