DIET THERAPY IN NURSING
Nutrition Index
Mr. Tucker’s (actual) weight is 3% less than his admission wt.
LIQUID DIETSINDICATIONS FOR CLEAR LIQUID DIEToProvide oral fluids; before/after surgery; prepare bowel for diagnostic tests (colono scopic examination, barium enema, and other procedures); minimize stimulation of GI tract; promote recovery from partial paralytic ileus (early refeeding); minimize residue in the GI tract; transition feeding from < IV feeding to solid foods; acute GI disturbances; diarrhea .CONTRA INDICATIONS FOR CLEAR LIQUID DIETo Should not be used more than 24 hours; inadequate GI function; nutrient needs requiring parenteral nutritionINDICATIONS FOR FULL LIQUID DIETo Provide oral fluids; after surgery; transition between clear liquids and solid food; oral or plastic surgery to the face and neck; mandibular fractures; patients who have chewing or swallowing difficulties; esophageal or GI strictures; diarrhea CONTRA INDICATIONS FOR FULL LIQUID DIET: Dysphagia
Types Of Diets
PUREED, MECHANICAL, OR SOFT DIETS INDICATIONS FOR PUREED DIETo Neurologic changes; inflammation or ulcerations of the oral cavity and/or esophagus; edentulous patients; fractured jaw; head and neck abnormalities; cerebrovascular accident .CONTRA INDICATIONS FOR PUREED DIEToSituations where ground or chopped foods are appropriateINDICATIONS FOR MECHANICAL SOFT DIET IoPoorly fitting dentures; edentulous patients; limited chewing or swallowing ability; dysphagia; strictures of intestinal tract; radiation treatment to oral cavity; progression from enteral tube feedings or parenteral nutrition to solid foodsCONTRA INDICATIONS FOR MECHANICAL SOFT DIETo Situations where regular foods are appropriate INDICATIONS FOR SOFT DIETDebilitated patients unable to consume a-regular diet; mild GI problemsCONTRAlNDICATIONS FOR SOFT DIET oSituations where regular-foods are appropriate
Indicators of Potential Nutritional Problems Clear or full liquid diets for more than three days without nutrient supplementation or with inappropriate or insufficient nutrient supplementation. Intravenous feeding (dextrose or saline) or NPO for more than 3 days without supplementation. Low intakes of prescribed diet or tube feedings Inconsistent growth or weight for height, above or below norms in children.
Pregnancy weight gain deviating from normal patterns
Diagnoses that increase nutritional needs or decrease nutrient intake (or both):cancer,malabsoprption, diarrhea, hyperthyroidism, excessive inflammation, postoperative status, hemorrhage, wounds (large, draining, or infected wounds), burns, infection, sepsis, major trauma (or multi system injury)
Chronic use of drugs, especially alcohol, that affects nutritional statusAlterations in chewing, swallowing, appetite, taste, and
smellTemperature consistently above 37o C (98.6 Fo) for more
than 2-daysHematocrit: <43% in men, <37% in womenHemoglobin: <14 g/dl in men, <12 g/dl in women;
accompanied by mean cell volume <82 cu or >100 cuAbsolute decrease in lymphocyte count (<1500
cells/mm3)Elevated (>250mg/dl) or decreased (<130 mg/dl) total
plasma cholesterol Serum albumin, <30 g/dl in patients without renal disease, liver
disease, generalized dermatitis,overhydration.
Dysphagia Position the patient in a comfortable with the head in an
upright position, slightly tilted forward Textured foods that require chewing stimulate a better
swallow, e.g. toast instead of bread or boiled potato instead of mashed potatoes.
Offer juices diluted with water at first, and use flexible straws if the patient has suckling capabilities
Mildly sweetened and salted foods are generally favored. Foods should be close to room temperature. Avoid acid or bitter flavors and sticky foods (e.g. soft bread, bananas, or peanut butter).
Make consistency adjustments according to the patient’s tolerance. Liquids can be used to moisten foods for individuals with decreased saliva production
Adapt the diet to the patients’ need and gradually upgrade it as feeding skills improve.
Gastroesophageal Reflux
Achieve and maintain ideal body weight to improve mechanical and postural status (except pregnant women, who should not try to lose weight).
Increase protein and reduce fat intake to increase sphincter pressure.
Avoid foods like chocolate, alcohol, peppermint, coffee, and carbonated drinks.
Avoid foods that may irritate and cause spasms; citrus juices, tomatoes, and tomato sauce.
Stop smoking, if that is a habit. Eat small meals four times a day. Eat large meal at noon with a lighter meal in the
evening. Finish the evening meal at least two to four hours before bedtime. Avoid late evening snacks.
Peptic Ulcer Trend in nutritional therapy of peptic ulcer- individualized approach, i.e. based on the individual patient’s tolerance for specific foods.To reduce or neutralize gastric acid secretion:Eat three meals daily; avoid skipping meals.Avoid stomach distention with large quantities of food at a meal.Avoid drinking milk frequently.Limit caffeine intake by reducing consumption of coffee, tea, cola, chocolate and other foods and beverages that contain caffeine.Limit alcohol intake and avoid drinking on any empty stomach.
. Limit intake of spicy, fatty or otherwise bothersome foods and beverages.
Some fibers, especially the soluble forms, are beneficial.
Citric acid juices may induce gastric reflux and discomfort in some patients.
Avoid bedtime snacks to prevent acid secretion if symptoms often occur in the middle of the night.Avoid cigarette smoking, which may increase gastric acid secretion and delay the healing process and is also associated with an increased frequency of duodenal ulcers.
GASTRITIS
The aim is to rest the stomach and reduce further irritation of the mucosa.
Acute type: NPO for 24 to 48 hours: give glucose
parenterally, followed by liquids, then soft to full diet as tolerated.
Chronic type: Bland, low fiber diet. Correct faulty food habits.
Intestinal Malabsorption
Decreased Absorption
Increased Absorption
Diet specific to etiology
Diarrhea
Clinical Implications Fluids must be replaced to avoid dehydration, solids should
be gradually added as tolerated. A low-residue diet may be in order to decrease the intake of fibrous materials.
Evaluate the use of foods that may contribute to diarrhea, especially those high in fiber, caffeine, and alcohol.
Encourage juices high in potassium Remove milk products from the diet if there is a possibility
of lactose intolerance. Bananas, grated raw apples, or cooked apple-sauce contain
pectin, which helps bind the fluid and retard its transit time. Extremely hot or cold foods increase peristalsis and may
aggravate diarrhea.
Constipation
Clinical ImplicationsAsk patients about their use of cathartics or laxatives. Gradually increase the amount of fiber or bulk in the diet
(raw vegetables and fruits, whole-grain breads, and cereals).
Force fluid intake; drink at least the equivalent of six to eight glasses of water a day.
Dried fruits, especially prunes, contain natural laxatives. Any hot beverage upon arising, such as coffee, tea, or
lemon water, may stimulate peristalsis because duodenal-ileal or gastric colic is strongest in the morning. Breakfast is also important and should contain some fiber.
Encourage activity and relaxation as much as possible allow sufficient time for bowel habits
Flatus
Clinical Implications Discourage drinking with straws. Avoid foods that produce gas (This is highly individual
matter, one which the patient must be observant). In many persons, dried beans, peas, and foods from the cabbage family (broccoli and Brussels sprouts) cause problems.
Decrease the amount of fat in the diet. Encourage the patient to chew food slowly, closing the
mouth. Malabsorption syndrome, peptic ulcers, and cholelithiasis
are disorders that cause excessive flatulence; these treatable disorders must be excluded by conventional means (Van Ness & Cattau, 1985)
Crohn’s Disease (Regional Enteritis)
Clinical Implications
During bouts with diarrhea, sources of potassium intake should be increased.
Multivitamin and mineral supplements are frequently recommended.
Ulcerative Colitis
Clinical Implications Patients with severe diarrhea or steatorrhea should
be monitored for magnesium, which is usually deficient in chronic inflammatory bowel disease (Philips & Garnys, 1981).
Low serum zinc levels are prevalent among children with chronic inflammatory bowel disease. Response to zinc intake is abnormal and growth is retarded (Nishl et al, 1980).
The use of azulfidine requires a daily intake of eight to ten cups of fluid.
Irritable Bowel Syndrom (IBS)
Clinical Implications
Patients with irritable bowel syndrome must be tested for lactose intolerance or malabsorption before further treatment (Goldsmith & Patterson, 1985).
Hydrophilic mucilloids necessitate large amounts of fluid intake.
Disease of the Liver, Pancreas
and Gall Bladder
Hepatitis
During acute phase: 5-10% dextrose Intravenously and/or protein parenterally: To minimize protein losses, prevent ketosis, to replace fluids and electrolytes.
High calories: To counteract weight loss and for maximum protein utilization.
High CHO: To spare protein: Insure glycogen reserve and maintenance of hepatic function.
High protein: To repair hepatic cells; from cholic and other bile acids; to prevent hypothermia; supply lipotropic factors which mobilize liver fat.
Cirrhosis
Moderate fat, MCT preferred over LCT (Restrict fat if there is billiary obstruction): To meet high energy needs, at the same time preventing fatty liver.
High vitamins: To maintain liver function. Frequent small feeding in cases of anorexia: For better
tolerance. Consistency: liquid to soft in acute attacks; more liberal
in convalescence: Adjusted to patient’s tolerance. Low sodium: In cases of ascites. Alcohol prohibited: Detoxification function of the liver is
impaired by alcohol.
Hepatic Encephalopathy (Hepatic Coma)
Protein Intake Initially: non-protein diet (Borst Diet)
Progress to: 20-30 gm/day (Giordano-Giovanetti Diet) if condition improves until the normal protein allowance is tolerated: To eliminate completely a source of nitrogen for ammonia synthesis.
Calories: 1500 to 2000 a day to come mostly from CHO and fat: Minimize tissue protein breakdown which is a source of ammonia.
Liberal vitamins and minerals: For adequate nutrition. Low sodium: Prevent ascites. Tube feeding: when oral feeding is not possible.
Cholecystitis
IV fluids and electrolytes; progress to clear liquid: To rest inflamed gallbladder, prevent and correct dehydration, volume depletion and electrolyte abnormalities.
Low fat: Reduce discomfort by preventing stimulation of sphincter of Oddi, and contraction of GB.
Bland low fiber: Decrease mechanical and chemical stimulation.
Low calorie for obese patients: For weight loss, obesity is predisposing factor.
Small frequent feedings: To prevent dyspepsia.
Pancreatitis
Acute attack: NPO: To rest the organ. Low fat: To control steatorrhea and prevent
stimulation for bile production. Moderate CHO and protein: Prevention of
hypoglycemia and creatorrhea. Plus enzyme supplements: Utilization of nutrients. Six small feedings, bland: Avoid undue distention
and stimulation. Avoidance of alcohol: Alcohol may precipitate
attack. Supplements of fat-soluble vitamins and calcium:
To prevent deficiencies. MCT oil: Better absorbed than LCT.
DIETARY MANAGEMENT OF SURGICAL CONDITIONS
Pre-operative Post-operative
Dietary Management in General
Pre-Operative
To improve the nutriture of the patient.
To prepare the patient for nutrient losses during surgery.
To hasten post-operative recovery.
To build up glycogen reserves.
To strengthen bodily resistance to infections.
Pre-Operative Dietary Management in: Emergency Operation
If patient is in good nutritional status – NPO 8 hours prior to surgery
To avoid vomiting during anesthesia or recovery from anesthesia, and decrease the risk of post-operative gastric retention since peristalsis is stropped
If patient is in poor nutritional status (protein deficient) parenteral administration of whole blood or plasma.
For adequate stores of serum protein to prevent hypoproteinemia and shock.
In addition, 5% glucose in water, saline solution, vitamins and potassium.
For adequate nutrition
Pre-Operative Dietary Management in: Elective Surgery
High calorie for underweight
To build up any weight deficit
Low to adequate calories for others
if patient is overweight, weight reduction is indicated to reduce surgical risks.
High carbohydrates For glycogen stores and to spare protein for tissue synthesis. Stores of glycogen exert a protective action on the liver and help to prevent post-operative ketosis and vomiting.
High protein To build reserves for anticipated blood losses during surgery and increased tissue catabolism, to reduce the possibility of edema at the site of the wound which is a hindrance to wound healing.
Increased vitamins, especially ascorbic acid, vitamin K; B- complex
For wound healing and prevention of hemorrhage
increased minerals, especially phosphorus and potassium; Na and chloride
To replace electrolyte losses due to the break-down of body tissue; and due to vomiting, diarrhea, perspiration and diuresis.
Iron To correct anemia
Increased fluids To replace losses due to vomiting and diuresis
Immediate Pre-operative Period – usually nothing is given by mouth for at least 8 hours before general surgery so that the stomach will have no retained food at the time of the operation
Post-operative Dietary Management in: Minor Surgery
LiquidsTolerated within a few hours; for maintenance or restoration of fluid and electrolyte balance.
Normal DietAs soon as activity of GIT is restored
Post-operative Dietary Management in: Major Surgery
NPO 24 - 48 Hours GI tract not yet functioning normally. To allow for recovery from anesthesia; prevent aspiration.
Nutrition support: type and duration depends on recovery of GIT function
As soon as activity of GIT is restored
Conventional intravenous administration of amino acid solution
Patient is expected to tolerate an enteral diet within a few days.
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) To meet nutritional needs for extended periods when enteral feeding is not possible
Tube feeding. If there is GIT function, but patient cannot tolerate an oral diet.
To meet nutritional needs until patient can tolerate food by mouth.
To give patient a feeling of being “normal” and hasten recovery; also, less expensive.
Oral Diet – liquid to full, as tolerated
Specific Surgical Conditions
Surgery of the Mouth, Throat and Esophagus.
Gastrectomy
Dumping Syndrome
Intestinal Surgery
Diet following other abdominal Operations
Rectal Surgery
Surgery of the Mouth, Throat and Esophagus
The aim is to provide food that require little chewing, comfortable and prevent bleeding.
For tooth extraction: fluid diet progressing to soft until full diet is tolerated.
Surgery of the mouth: full fluid or pureed foods; or tube feeding.
Tonsillectomy: very cold or mild flavored foods the first few days. Avoid fibrous foods; then warm fluids and foods on the 2nd day, progress to a normal diet after a week.
Gastrectomy
NPO first 24-48 hours; intravenous feedings Day 2 to 4: iced water with intravenous feedings Day 5: 1 to 2 oz. Water every even hours, and 1 to 2 oz milk
every odd hour between. Day 6: Soft low fiber foods are used – eggs, custards,
thickened soups, cereals, crackers, milk and fruit purees are suitable.
Day 7: Tender meats, cottage cheese, and pureed vegetables are the next foods added to all the foods allowed in the previous days.
Meats are divided into 5 or 6 small feedings daily with emphasis on foods high in protein and fat. CHO is kept relatively low. If not liquids are taken with meals, and the diet continues to be low in CHO, especially the simple sugars, many patients progress satisfactorily.
Dumping Syndrome: Major Surgery
Small frequent feedings (5 or6) fed in supine position.
To prevent dumping of food into the intestines.
High protein Better tolerate because proteins are hydrolyzed into osmotically active substances more slowly; needed to rebuild tissues and gain strength.
High fat To meet energy needs
High calories For strength
Simple CHO (sugar, sweets or desserts, restricted)
Simple CHO increases osmolarity of jejunum contents * “dumping syndrome.”
Dry solid diet
Better than liquids as they enter the jejunum less rapidly.
Low fiber, low residue diet
To prevent rapid dumping of food into the intestines.
Avoid alcohol or sweet carbonated beverages
Intestinal Surgery: Major Surgery
Clear fluid Initial oral intake after surgery
Low residue, bland To promote healing of the stoma and to prevent irritation
HI calorie, HI PRO For weight recovery
VIT B12 supplemented To prevent possible macrocytic anemia in later years
Intestinal Surgery: Colostomy
Same for Ileostomy
Jejunoileostomy
Low fat, low CHO, low fiber To prevent from diarrhea
HI PRO To restore electrolyte balance and to provide for losses of K, Ca and Mg.
Diet following Other Abdominal Operations
Cholecystectomy
Low fat – for several weeks or months
To avoid pain since large amounts of fats cause contraction of the tissues irritated and inflamed by surgery
HI PRO For faster convalescense
Diet following Other Abdominal Operations
Peritonitis and intestinal obstruction
NPO – 1ST 24 to 48 hours, intravenous therapy
Gastrointestinal function has not yet returned and drainage of the stomach and upper intestine is essential until there is reduction of distention and passage of gas.
Clear liquids to low residue Better tolerated; transition to full diet
Rectal Surgery
Hemorrhoidectomy
NPO – 1ST 24 to 48 hours Due to anaesthesia
Clear liquid Initial Feeding
Low fiber-low residue: Fruits and vegetables are omitted except for strained fruit juices
To discourage early bowel movements
Allergy
Avoidance diet: An adequate diet which excludes the food(s) causing allergic reactions (e.g. milk-free, egg-free diet, wheat-free diet, etc.)
Desensitization: The allergenic food is given in gradually increasing amounts over a long period of time.
Most Common Food Allergens
Chicken
Cow’s milk
Wheat
Peanuts/nuts
Soy products
Fish, shellfish
Diabetes Mellitus (DM)
Dietary Modification
Current concepts
There is no one “diabetic diet” that will suit the individual and special needs of a person with diabetes.
The diet for an individual with diabetes can only be defined as a “dietary prescription” based on nutrition assessment and treatment goals.
Goals of Nutrition Therapy of DM Maintenance of as near-normal blood
glucose levels as possible Achievement of optimal serum lipid
levels Provision of adequate energy to
maintain/achieve reasonable body weight
Prevention and treatment of the acute complications and of long-term complications
Improvement of overall health through optimal nutrition
Recommended Dietary ModificationTotal calories – sufficient to maintain/achieve
reasonable weight in adults, or meet increased needs of children, adolescents, pregnant and lactating women and individuals recovering from catabolic illness.

Sodium –limit to about 3000 mg/day; less for people with hypertension or renal complications.
Alcohol – moderate amounts may be allowed, contingent on good metabolic control.
Vitamins and mineral supplement – not usually necessary, but may be given to individuals, on reduced calorie diets (1400 kcal/day or less).
Strategies for Diabetes Medical Nutrition Therapy
Type I DM Type II DMStrategy Obese Non-ObeseCalorie restriction * *** * Timing of meals *** ** **Meal spacing ** *** **Fat modification *** *** ***Sucrose limitation ** ** **Exercise ** *** ***Exercise snack *** * *Other nutrition variables ** ** **
Blood glucose monitoring *** *** ***_________________________________________* Low ** Moderate *** High
Overweight/Obese Low calorie: To enable the body to deplete adipose tissue
stores. High protein: For high safety value; exerts higher specific
dynamic action; to minimize tissue nitrogen loss Moderate fat: For safety value; emphasis on PUFA. Normal to low CHO: Close relation of glucose to fat
formation. Bulky, low calorie foods: To provide safety without
increasing calorie intake. Supplement of PUFA: Accelerates oxidation of body fat.
Underweight High calorie diet: For storage of fat in the adipose tissue,
to restore DBW Gradual increases: To avoid gastric upsets and spells of
discouragement. High protein: For replacement and repair of body tissue High CHO: For added calories; protein-sparer. Bulky, low calorie foods: To provide satiety without
increasing calorie intake. Supplement of PUFA: Accelerates oxidation of body fat.
Hyperthyroidism
High calories: to compensate for increased BMR
Adequate vitamins – thiamin, riboflavin, B12, ascorbic acid, pyridoxine and vitamin A, D, E.
- increased requirements for enhanced cellular metabolism- Degradation of vitamin is accelerated.
Increased iodine: Iodine is needed for thyroxine formation.
Adequate calcium: Correct Ca resorption from bone and prevent hypercalciuria.
Hypothyroidism
Iodine supplementation
Low calorie: To minimize weight gain due to lowered BMR
Hyperinsulinism
Functional TypeLow CHO (75-110 g/day): emphasis on complex CHO:
CHO serves as stimulus to insulin secretion. High protein, high fat. If obese emphasize MUFA: To
supply glucose in as slow even but continuous flow and to prevent marked rise of sugar at any one time.
Maintenance of DBW: To prevent oversecretion of insulin.
Restriction on coffee, tea and cola beverages: Caffeine stimulates the adrenals to cause glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis * increased blood glucose * stimulation of pancreas * increased insulin.
Avoidance of alcohol: Alcohol has hypoglycemic
Hyperinsulinism
Fasting
High CHO: To provide constant sucrose of available glucose.
Hypertension
Calorie level, depends on weight status or weight goal: Weight loss of 5-6% in over-weight/obese can lower BP.
Sodium – restricted: Excess sodium may increase:
- cardiac output due to over-filling of vasculature
- peripheral resistance to blood flow
Fluids and roughage – adequate: Prevent constipation which hinders absorption of anti-hypertensive drugs.
Risk Factors for CHD
● Modifiable ● Nonmodifiable
● Dyslipidemia - Age- Sex- Family history of
CHD ● Smoking
● Hypertension● Diabetes mellitus● Obesity● Dietary factors● Thrombogenic factors● Sedentary lifestyle
HDL Cholesterol
Low HDL cholesterol is a strong independent predictor of CHD1
The lower the HDL cholesterol level the higher the risk for atherosclerosis and CHD2
Low HDL is defined categorically as a level < 40 mg/dl (a change from < 35 mg/dl in ATP II)1
HDL cholesterol tends to be low when triglycerides are high2
Triglycerides
Recent data suggest that elevated triglycerides are an independent risk factor for CHD
Normal triglyceride levels: < 150 mg/dl
Borderline-high triglycerides: 150 to 199 mg/dl
High triglycerides: 200 to 499 mg/dl
Very high triglycerides: (> 500 mg/dl) increase pancreatitis risk
Initial aim of therapy is prevention of acute pancreatitis.
CHD
Total fat – not more than 30% of TER:
- avoid post-prandial hyperlipedemia and its possible adverse effect of coagulation.
- reduce plasma LDL cholesterol
SFA – approx 10% of TER period of time.
PUFA – approx. 10% of TER consisting of omega-6 PUFA (e.g linoleic acid), promotes prostaglandin synthesis, which in turn promotes arterial dilation and heart muscle contractility
Long chain PUFA or omega 3 fatty acids
MUFA – approx. 10% of TER. as effective as PUFA in lowering serum total cholesterol,
but has the advantages of not lowering HDL cholesterol, less susceptible to oxidation, less thrombogenic potential, does not raise serum triglycerides; also has less tumorigenic potential.
Cholesterol – not more than 300 mg/day reduce plasma LDL cholesterol Sodium – moderate intake: -control blood pressure Carbohydrates – type and amount depends on lipid
abnormality Alcohol – avoid high intake: control blood pressure
- reduce fibrinogen - exessive intake can produce hypertriglyceridemia,
elevated LDL cholesterol, arrythmia, cardiac enlargement and heart failure
Calories – sufficient to maintain/achieve desirable body weight.
- reduce insulin resistance
- reduce synthesis of cholesterol, esp. LDL, VLDL, triglycerides
- reduce risk of cholesterol gallstone formation
Acute MI or Coronary Occlusion or Thrombosis
Acute phase: 500 – 800 cal liquid diet for 2-3 days* to avoid gagging and aspiration of solid foods.
No extremes in temperature- To prevent possible precipitation of arrythmias.
No coffee or tea- maybe stimulating and increases heart rate.
Parenteral feeding- For those unwilling to consume liquid diet
Restriction of Na - to prevent/correct edema
Subacute phase* 1000 – 1200 cal: 20% Pro. 45% CHO 35% fat
- To meet resting metabolism requirements.
Cholesterol, 300 mg* To control blood cholesterol possible precipitation level
Soft, low fiber, free of gastric irritants* To avoid indigestion and flatus
Sodium restriction* To prevent /correct edema
Small frequent feeding* to reduce possibility of post prandial dyspnea or pain.
Congestive Heart Failure
Low calories- reduce weight; decrease work of heart
Moderate protein- maintenance of N balance
Sodium restriction – 500 mg initially, 1000 mg later- to control edema.
Small frequent feedings- decreased circulatory load
Fluid as desired
Nutritional Anemias
Iron Deficiency AnemiaIron supplementation
Adequate diet with emphasis on vitamin C to enhance iron absorption and utilization.
Megaloblastic anemiaVitamin B12 must be given by injection
because of the lack of intrinsic factor necessary for its absorption.
Nutrition in Renal DiseasesNutrition in Renal Diseases
Metabolic Abnormalities
Renal clearance or urea guanidines, other products of N metabolism, Na, K, Ca, Mg, trace elements and many medicines.
Impaired ability to conserve nutrients such as Na and sometimes protein.
Reduce intestinal absorption of Ca and Iron Impaired ability to synthesize or metabolize
Loss of excretory function• Impaired metabolic action, resulting in altered nutrient,
metabolic and hormone levels.• Synthesis of certain hormones (erythropoietin and 1, 25
dihydroxycholecalciferol) Altered synthesis or degradation of nutrients by other
tissues Intestinal formation of dimethylamine and trimethylamine
Metabolic clearance of pyridoxine.
Possible mechanism underlying these metabolic alterations
Loss of excretory function Impaired metabolic action, resulting in
altered nutrient, metabolic and hormone levels
Adaptive changes in metabolic feedback loops involving hormones, enzymes and reaction products.
Reduced food intake
Effects of these abnormalities
Blood levels – amines, phenols and indoles and other nitrogenous substances
Enzymes of amino acid metabolism, tricarboxylic acid enzyme and gluconeogenic enzyme.
Serum nitrogen-containing hormones (insulin, glucagon, PTH, growth hormones, gastrin, rolactin, leutinizing hormones, gastrin, prolactin, leutinizing hormones
Serum somatostatinSerum erythropoietin and 1, 25 dihydroxycholecalciferol
Serum Renin – normal, increased or reduced
Deficiencies of vit. D and folic acid and vit. B6 due to medicine.
Wasting syndrome:• Relative body weight, muscle mass and
body fat
• Slow growth rate in children
• Decreased serum concentration of total protein, albumin, transferin, C3 and other complement proteins
• Abnormal plasma amino acid concentration
DIETARY PRINCIPLES
