iiiiPreface
The Manual of Medical Nutrition Therapy was written to serve as a nutrition care
guide for dietetics professionals and other health care professionals. Each section of the
Manual was researched, written, and reviewed by Registered Dietitians, Dietetic
Technicians Registered or nutrition/dietetic students in accredited programs. However,
the field of nutrition and its application to individual needs is constantly changing with
continuous research. Therefore, this Manual should always be used with consultation from
a Registered Dietitian.
The specific purpose of the Manual of Medical Nutrition Therapy is to provide
general practice information in the course of normal dietetics practice and to alert
practitioners to general areas of concern for which you may seek additional medical,
technical, or professional assistance. Many sections of the FDA Manual of Medical
Nutrition Therapy contain Practitioner Points for the Registered Dietitian (RD) and Dietetic
Technician Registered (DTR) and when appropriate Nutrition Education for the public.

The Practitioner Points of each diet contain a brief description of rationale, use,
related physiology, nutrients modified, nutritional adequacy and references. The Nutrition
Education contains an introduction, purpose, nutrients modified, dietary guidelines, food
lists, sample menus or handouts, and approximate nutritional analysis. All diets analyzed
for this manual contain adequacy statements based on the 1989 Recommended Dietary
Allowances and Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) for adult males and females.
No warranty, explicit or implied, as to the appropriateness of application of the
contents of this manual to specific individuals is made by the Florida Dietetic Association,

PRACTITIONER POINTS
RATIONALE
The purpose of a nutritional
assessment is to evaluate a patient's
nutritional adequacy to identify nutritionrelated problems, existing nutritional deficits
and degree of nutritional risk for developing
nutritional deficits. A nutritional assessment
is a comprehensive evaluation of a patients
nutritional status, which establishes baseline
data to evaluate the effectiveness of medical
nutritional therapies and to develop a nutritional care plan. A comprehensive nutritional
assessment utilizes both objective data and
subjective data from the patient and/or significant other to determine past and present
nutritional state of health. The recommendations made are dependent on the skill and
experience of the clinician in interpreting
available information and the significance
and limitations of the data.

CLINICAL EVALUATION
Physical Examination
Thorough physical assessment is a key
component of the patients nutritional health
history. Observations in the general physical
exam are usually indicative of long-term nutrition depletion (13, 21).
Ideally, the physical exam should include assessment of muscle mass and
Nutrition Assessment
subcutaneous fat stores, inspection and palpation for edema and ascites (indicators of
diminished visceral protein levels and hepatic
dysfunction), inspection and evaluation for
signs and symptoms of vitamin and mineral
deficits (13, 21, 26).
Various clinical findings are associated
with specific nutrient deficiencies (5-8). Physical signs are usually non-specific and nonapparent until the patient is severely malnourished. Specific nutrient deficiencies
should be confirmed by appropriate laboratory data before therapy is instituted.
Nutritional Physical Examination
The exam proceeds from head to toe to
assess patients nutritional health. Equipment for assessment includes stethoscope,
reflex hammer, tape measure, calipers, thermometer, tongue blade, and penlight.

distal portion is placed firmly against the
clients skin. The middle finger of the
dominant hand strikes the pleximeter with
the fingertip, not the finger pad. It should hit
at a right angle to the stationary finger. The
finger strikes twice and is withdrawn immediately to avoid interfering with vibrations.
Different sounds are produced by different
tissues (21).
Auscultation: Uses the stethoscope to listen
to sounds produced by organs and viscera
including lungs, heart, blood vessels,
stomach and intestines. Auscultation is used
last in physical assessment except in the
abdomen. Since bowel sounds may be
disrupted by palpation, auscultation is used
second in the abdomen after inspection.

Height
Measurement of height forms the basis
for calculation of ideal body weight (IBW),
caloric need, and adequacy of caloric intake.
Unfortunately, it is often missing from the
medical record. When documenting height,
the person should be barefoot, or wearing
only socks or stockings. The feet should be
together with the heels against the wall or
measuring board. The person should be
standing erect, neither slumped nor
stretching, looking straight ahead. The top of
the ear and outer corner of the eye should be
in a line parallel to the floor, called the
Frankfort plane. A horizontal bar, a
rectangular block of wood, or the top of the
statiometer then should be lowered to rest
flat on the top of the head. The height should
be read to the nearest 1/4 inch or 0.5
centimeters (4).

Interpretation of Weight Percent Usual
Body Weight
Usual Body Weight (UBW) is used most
A1.6
commonly to determine nutritional status
based on weight. Both a weight loss and a
weight gain need to be compared to the usual
or pre-illness weight, as well as comparing
the current weight to a reference standard.
Usual body weight is a more useful parameter
than healthy or ideal body weight when
evaluating the status of an ill patient. The
percentage of recent weight change with
respect to the UBW correlates best with acute
morbidity and mortality. The disadvantage is
that it is dependent on patient or caregiver
memory. A past medical record may be
available to give weight history.

Body Composition
As with other anthropometric measurements, care must be taken in the measurement technique and in the interpretation of
results. Single measurements are not particularly useful and should not be used in conjunction with other indices. Changes need to
be followed periodically over time to provide
meaningful data and assessments.

Skinfold Measurements

TSF is most commonly used in clinical
settings to estimate energy reserves because
it is an easily accessible and indirect
measure of subcutaneous fat. Measurements
of Mid-Arm Circumference (MAC), Mid-Arm
Muscle Circumference (MAMC) and Arm
Muscle Area (AMA) are indirect methods of
measuring somatic protein (skeletal muscle
mass). Nutritional risk based on these
measurements utilizes reference data which
are not available for elderly people or ethnic
minorities. Assessment of short-term changes
in body composition especially for ICU
patients or acutely stressed patients is not
reliable (13, 17, 21).

Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) also
known as Resting Energy Expenditure (REE),
is the term used for metabolic rate or energy
expenditure in the awake, resting,
postabsorptive (2 hours post meal) subject. It
is often measured by indirect calorimetry and
is approximately 10% higher than the BEE or
BMR (9).
Harris-Benedict Equation (15)
To calculate the BEE and subsequent
caloric requirement for men and women
follow the equation listed below, either using
the metric system or pounds and inches.
For men: BEE = 66.5 + 13.7(wt in kg) + 5.0 (ht in cm) 6.8 (age in years)
For women: BEE = 665 + 9.6 (wt in kg) + 1.8 (ht in cm)
- 4.7(age in years)
For men: BEE = 66 + 6.3 (wt in lbs) + 12.9 (ht in

To determine calorie need in nonmetabolically stressed individuals, this
formula is easy to use. Figure the individual's
weight from the height (see section B3b)
(17). Determine basal calories by multiplying

Nitrogen balance studies
Protein requirements should be
routinely monitored via nitrogen balance
studies in stressed patients because
prediction of requirements is difficult in
septic, trauma, post-surgical or critically ill
patients. Note that nitrogen loss after injury
and infection is less than expected in the
elderly and in already depleted individuals
(23). Appropriate candidates for nitrogen
balance studies are catheterized patients on
reasonably well-defined nutrition support
regimens where energy intake and urinary
output is well controlled. Careful monitoring
of nitrogen intake is necessary for patients
receiving transitional or supplemental
feedings (13, 20, 21).

Biochemical Assessment
While laboratory tests are used to
provide worthwhile information for evaluating
and managing nutritional status, they are
often influenced by non-nutritional factors.
Lab results can be altered by medications, hydration status, or other changes in metabolic
processes during illness or stress. Interpretation must include these confounding
factors (26). Values should be interpreted using the laboratory standards because assay
methods may vary among labs.
The major biochemical parameters for
assessing nutritional status can be divided
into those that measure lean body mass and
those that measure transport proteins that
are synthesized by the liver.

and the most common cause of anemia.
Anemia refers to a hemoglobin level below
expected reference ranges and results from
infection, chronic disease, and deficiencies of
folate and vitamin B12. Medical management
for iron deficiency anemia includes
investigation of underlying causes including
inadequate nutrient intake, impaired utilization
or absorption, altered hematopoietic activity, or
blood loss.
Just as no single test is indicative of
malnutrition, no single laboratory test is
diagnostic of impaired iron status and several
different tests are used to assess iron status.
They may include hemoglobin, serum iron,
serum plasma ferritin, percent transferrin
saturation, red blood cell counts, red blood cell
protoporphyrin, or mean corpuscular volume
depending on the model requested. Additional
non-specific studies of inflammatory response
such as RBC sed-rate (red blood count
sedimentation rate or ESR), zeta-sedimentation
rate (SR), and C-reactive protein (CRP), allow for
discrimination between iron deficiency anemia
and the anemia caused by infection,
inflammation, and chronic disease. Red blood

RATIONALE AND USE
It has been stated that the health
promotion challenge confronting dietitians is
to connect peoples nutrition knowledge
with action and change.(1, pg.1,2). A large
body of dietetics and health education
literature notes that nutrition education and
nutrition counseling are health promoting
methods used by dietitians to increase
knowledge, alter attitudes, build skills, and to
ultimately help develop and maintain
appropriate health-related behaviors (1-15).
The literature recognizes that both nutrition
education and counseling need to have as a
foundation evidence-based information from
the sciences of food, dietetics, nutrition, and
health care (1-2, 4-18). Equally important is
that consideration needs to be given to client
or patient expectations, as well as
characteristics such as culture, age, gender,
educational and literacy levels, occupation,
religion, language, and lifestyle (5-15, 1926).
T

Nutrition education may be accomplished at the individual, group, and community levels (7,10,22) or may involve
coordinated efforts targeting county, state,
national, or international populations (2, 10,
15, 27-30). Vehicles frequently used to deliver nutrition education include the following: classes, brochures, newsletters, self-
A2.1
study modules, written articles, posters, visual models, games, theatrical performances,
puppet shows, audiocassette tapes, grocery
store tours, food or cooking demonstrations,
food tasting events, magazines, newspapers,
television, videotapes, digital recordings, CDROMs, computer software, and the Internet
(7, 31-33). Examples of nutrition education
activities, as cited by Holli, Calabrese, and
OSullivan Maillet (7, pg.258), might include
the following: lectures, directed discussion,
debate, individual or group problem solving,
case studies, role playing and simulation,
demonstrations, and completion of projects.
Nutrition education may also be delivered
through messages on food product packaging, in product advertising, in food product
brochures, or via other promotional items designed to influence food or beverage consumption (11, 34). Frequently other creative
means are used to convey nutrition education messages (10). As an example, the
United States Department of Agriculture has
recently initiated use of a Food Safety
Mobile which is an automotive van designed
to deliver food safety messages by touring
across the country (35).

PRACTITIONER POINTS
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
The term diverse refers to differences.
The many ways that Americans differ from
each other cannot be addressed within the
scope of this section. The focus then is on
cultural and religious diversity relevant to
the practice of dietetics.
Over recent years, demographic data,
including the United States Census reports,
have indicated a continuing increase in the
number of minority and ethnic populations.
It has been noted; however, that though
these increases are significant, they may
underestimate the actual numbers. Data
may not accurately categorize or count
those of mixed ethnicity or ancestry or
whites from other ethnic groups.
Additionally, the categories used can be
confusing to respondents. For example,
some citizens who have been historically
referred to as black but born outside of the
United States may not select African
American as the category to define
themselves.

Actions:
1. Consider your own cultural values and
biases.
2. Accept cultural differences without being
judgmental or discarding your own values.
3. Consider potential inherent biases in
measurement and assessment tools. Are
they
appropriate for measuring or evaluating
the population with whom you are working?
4. Be flexible and open to adapting your
counseling approach or procedure to where
practical, meet the needs of the patient,
client, or group (5).
B. Gaining General Background Information
It is necessary to gain information from the
client that may not directly relate to the
disease or specific nutrition concerns. The
information may be more demographic in
nature, but is relevant for assessment and
intervention.
Actions:
Determine specifically what the cultural
background is, as identified by the
individual. The broad term Hispanic, for
example, includes individuals of varied

it, and what are its effects?
Does the client believe the condition can be
cured?
What does the client believe the cure for the
condition involves?
Does treatment include culturally traditional
treatment, folk or home remedies, or the
involvement of a cultural or folk healer?
Are alternative therapies being utilized?
Does the client have certain specific beliefs
related to food and health? Are specific
foods required to achieve and maintain
health (6)? Are specific foods selected or
avoided based on the type of illness or life
condition, such as pregnancy?

Obesity Synopsis
Nearly two-thirds of adults in the
United States have crossed the BMI
thresholds and are now classified as either
overweight (BMI=25.0-29.9), or obese (BMI
=30) (1). Rates of obesity have doubled
since 1980, and the World Health
Organization now labels obesity a global
epidemic (2). In Florida, since 1986 when
monitoring began, obesity among adults has
has almost tripled increasing from 9.8
percent to 26.5 percent in year 2009 (3). In
2009, 36.9 percent of Florida adults were
overweight, or approximately 7,341,036
individuals living in our state.

Anorectics
Medications of this type act principally
on the satiety center of the hypothalamic and
limbic regions of the brain. The anorexic
effect is temporary, seldom lasting more than
a few weeks. The development of tolerance
and "wearing-off" of effects form the main
drawbacks of these medications. The
appetite suppressants have been associated
with abuse, particularly in connection with
long-term therapy, as they are pharmacologically related to amphetamines. When tolerance to these agents develops, the

Bupropion
Bupropion (Wellbutrin) is a drug
approved for the treatment of depression and
smoking cessation. On the basis of the
clinical observations that a large percentage
of patients taking bupropion lost weight,
several research trials have been conducted
to determine its efficacy in facilitating weight
loss, with promising results (60, 61). Jain and
colleagues (62) report a randomized, doubleblind, placebo-controlled study among 394
adults who were obese but also diagnosed
with depressive symptoms. All subjects were
asked to follow a diet for 26 weeks with 500
fewer than usual kcal daily; half of patients
were assigned to sustained-release
bupropion at 300 mg/day. The group
receiving bupropion lost an average of 4.6
percent of base weight, compared to 1.7
percent of base weight loss for the control
group.

ETIOLOGY
Obesity is a complex, multifactorial,
chronic disease. The factors likely to
predispose some individuals to obesity
include genetic, metabolic, and hormonal
influences. Other factors, such as:
behavioral, environmental, physiological,
social, and cultural factors may also result in
energy imbalance and promote excessive fat
deposition. Bodyweight depends upon the
balance between calories consumed and
calories expended. This balance depends
largely on genetic make-up, level of physical
activity, body composition and resting energy
expenditure. If more calories are consumed
than expended, the excess calories are
stored as fat in the form of adipocytes (fat
cells).

WEIGHT MAINTENANCE
Some individuals will not be able to
accomplish a significant amount of weight
loss. The goal for these patients should be
guidance in preventing further weight gain
and for reducing risk factors, when present.
Key findings from the National Weight Control
Registry (NWCR), an ongoing study of individuals who have been successful at longterm weight maintenance include:
consumption of a low calorie, low fat diet;
high levels of physical activity; and remaining
vigilant about ones weight. Similar findings
concur that weight loss maintenance improves by maximizing contact with
individuals, encouraging moderate to high
levels of exercise, providing structured
approaches to modifying dietary intake,
increasing social support and problem solving
techniques and increasing initial weight-loss
success.

The term aerobic means "using oxygen." During aerobic exercise we use
oxygen to burn a mixture of fat and
carbohydrates for energy. It takes a while
for the bodys metabolic engine to rev up
to aerobic mode. That is why aerobic exercise burns the most calories if done for 30
minutes, at least three times a week.

Cool-Down
Warm-Up
An exercise regime
should always include
five minutes of warm-up
-- a slow-pace version of
your activity -- a slow
walk for example. This
gradually increases
heart rate and blood
flow to prepare the heart
and muscles for exercise. Follow this with a
little stretching for another five minutes. This
helps to prevent injuries, since warm, stretched muscles are
less prone to injury than cold, tight ones.
Stretch your major muscle groups,
the muscles you plan to use during exercise. Stretch in a relaxed, controlled way.
Extend the muscle only as far as comfortable. If it hurts, you are doing too much.
Hold each stretch for 10 seconds. Do NOT
bounce. Do NOT hold your breath.
Breathe normally.

Stop exercising
a muscle when
you feel you
may be losing
control of the
muscle, or if
the muscle is
too fatigued or
strained to
keep the the
correct form.
Dont add more
stress to muscles
that are already tired.
Take it slow when you perform the
reps. Many exercise experts advise to
count to 2 as you lift the weight,
and count to 4 as you lower it.
Exhale when you lift a weight. Never
hold your breath while lifting a
weight.
Rest 30 to 90 seconds between each
exercise.
Count on having some muscle
soreness, especially in the beginning
days of your program. This is normal.
The soreness eventually goes away as
you continue to workout. Remember
that a little soreness is fine, but
P A I N is not good. Stop if you feel
pain.

Here are some little exercise activities that, done regularly, can add up:
Leave the car behind and walk
to the store for that short trip to
buy a quart of milk or lotto

In public buildings, and in
apartment complexes, take the
stairs rather than elevators.
Spend time window shopping

streets.
If you play golf, carry your own

You can use this table* to determine how many calories you may burn in a given
activity. Just find the column that that corresponds to your weight, and then move
down the column to see the activity. Multiply the number of calories per minute by the

The prevalence of childhood obesity
has increased greatly during the past three
decades (1). The prevalence of obesity
among children aged 6 to 11 years
increased from 6.5 percent in 1980 to 19.6
percent in 2008. The prevalence of obesity
among adolescents aged 12 to 19 years
increased from 5.0 percent to 18.1 percent
(2). Results from the 2007-2008 National
Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
(NHANES), using measured heights and
weights, indicate that an estimated 17
percent of children and adolescents ages 219 years are obese (2). Obesity may lead to
psychological, social, physical, and medical

Vegetarianism is defined as the
practice and philosophy of eating a plant
based diet including grains, nuts, seeds, legumes, vegetables, and fruit (1, 2). However,
vegetarian diets vary according to ethical,
economic, environmental, humanitarian or
religious concerns. Most exclude meat, fowl,
and fish and some exclude eggs and dairy
products. There are different variations of
the vegetarian diet, but the three main types
are: vegan (strict vegetarian); lactovegetarian, which includes milk in the diet;
and lacto-ovo-vegetarian, which includes
milk and eggs. Another variation of the vegetarian diet, though not considered true
vegetarianism, is called pesco-vegetarian.
This variation of the vegetarian diet includes
fish and is sometimes referred to as macrobiotic. Refer to Table 1 for a listing of the
different classifications of the vegetarian
diet.

The vegetarian diet is composed predominantly of plant foods and may or may
not include eggs and dairy products. The
2003 Position Statement of the American
Dietetic Association and Dietitians of Canada
states that an appropriately planned vegetarian diet is healthful, nutritionally adequate,
and provides health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases (3).
RELATED PHYSIOLOGY
Research has shown that vegetarians
are at a lower risk for many diseases and
conditions, including obesity, cardiovascular
C2.1
disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes,
cancer, and diverticular disease and are at a
lower risk of mortality from chronic diseases
(2-12).
NUTRIENTS MODIFIED
Vegetarian diets can be healthful and
nutritionally adequate if properly planned
and a variety of foods are consumed.
Vegetarian diets tend to be higher in fiber,
vitamins A and C, and phytochemicals and
lower in calories, cholesterol, saturated fat,
and sodium than non-vegetarian diets (2, 11,
12). Groups at risk for inadequate caloric
and nutrient intake include: infants, children,
adolescents, and pregnant and lactating
women (3, 11, 12). However, with proper
planning a vegetarian diet can meet nutrient
needs throughout the life cycle (3).

With the arrangement of the new hookup between the stomach pouch and intestine,
gastric contents enter the jejunum directly
after leaving the stomach pouch. When
concentrated sweets are ingested the result
is hypertonicity of the jejunal contents, which
in turn, produces a rapid influx of fluids drawn
from the plasma and extracellular fluid. This
causes intestinal distention, a drop in
circulating blood volume with a subsequent
decrease in cardiac output and a release of
vasoactive peptides. This produces symptoms
known as Dumping Syndrome. This
syndrome is characterized by gastrointestinal
symptoms of epigastric fullness, nausea,
abdominal cramping, diarrhea and vasomotor
symptoms of flushing, sweating, weakness,
tachycardia and postural hypotension (2, 5).
These symptoms are considered an
advantage not a disadvantage of the RYGBP
because they discourage the patient from
eating high calorie, low nutrient sweet foods.
There is a learning curve associated with this
surgery and more emphasis needs to be
placed on behavior modification and the
development of good nutrition practices.

RELATED PHYSIOLOGY
Metabolic Syndrome develops with
metabolic slowing of the body (for instance
from increased calories and decreased exercise) or metabolic disorder for other reasons
(smoking, alcohol, hormonal). Overall, less
glucose is used for fuel, free fatty acids are
created and glucose is stored as triglycerides.
A decrease of high density lipoproteins
(HDLs) occurs as lipids shift from glucose metabolism to lipogenesis. Increased fat storage
expands fat cells, which in turn, increases
body fat. The increase of body fat heightens
blood pressure and insulin resistance. Insulin
resistance creates a greater storage of fats
by triglycerides, increasing circulating free
fatty acids and vascular pressure. Although
complex, this is essentially the metabolic
criteria for the syndrome. Although excess
body fat and physical inactivity promote the
development of insulin resistance, some
individuals are at higher genetic risk (1).

PRACTITIONER POINTS
RATIONALE
The Food and Drug Administration is
responsible for the implementation and
enforcement of the Nutrition Labeling and
Education Act of 1990. The regulations,
implemented in 1994, were intended to
insure that:
Most foods contain nutrition information
labeling
Labels will provide guidance on how a
food fits into a daily diet
Information will be presented on
nutrients of health concern to todays
consumers
Government definitions are established
for terms used to describe a foods
nutrient content
Health claims that relate to nutrient
content will be supported by scientific
evidence
Serving sizes are more consistent across
product lines, are expressed in
household and metric measures and
better reflect the amounts that people
eat
Provide a declaration of total percentage
of juice in juice drinks
Food labeling is mandatory for most
processed foods and is voluntary for raw
produce and fish
T

E
History
The 1990 law represented the first
extensive change to the food labeling laws
since the voluntary nutrition labeling laws
enacted in 1974. The original act only
addressed products that contained added

PRACTITIONER POINTS
OVERVIEW
The Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs)
represent four separate tables, each of
which is designed to estimate quantities of
nutrients needed in the average daily diet by
normal, healthy populations living in the U.S.
and Canada. The most well known of the four
tables is the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs), joined by the Estimated Average Requirement (EAR), Adequate Intakes
(AIs), and the Tolerable Upper Intake Levels
(ULs) (1-3).
The DRIs have three general purposes.
First, they provide sets of values used by
professionals to plan policy and assess daily
diets of individuals and populations. Values
are for males and females from infancy to
>70 years of age and for conditions of
pregnancy and lactation. Second, the DRIs
are used to set standards for diet planning
tools like the U.S. food labels and MyPyramid
(4). Third, these help to interpret data
gathered from population studies and clinical
research to learn about nutritional
inadequacies and excesses that may be of
interest or concern (5).
T

E
GOALS
The DRI committee, made up of
experts from the U.S. and Canada,
established four goals toward setting the
appropriate nutrient intake levels (6, 7).
These are:

INTRODUCTION
This chapter focuses on dietary recommendations for persons who have no special
dietary needs related to a medical condition
or illness. Currently, the primary foundations
of nutrition education for government
agencies and dietetics professionals who
work with healthy consumers are the Dietary
Guidelines for Americans 2005 and the new
food guidance system developed and
recently released by the U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA), which is called

Facts About the ENAFS Daily Food Guide Pyramid for Elders
The ENAFS Daily Food Guide Pyramid for Elders was adapted from the Modified Food Guide
Pyramid for People over Seventy Years of Age developed at the U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University. The Tufts pyramid is an
adaptation of The Food Guide Pyramid that was developed by USDA for the general population.
Compare the ENAFS Pyramid with USDAs Food Pyramid for the general population:
The ENAFS pyramid is slimmer: As we age, most of us need fewer calories from food. When eating
less food, it becomes especially important to choose nutrient-rich foods.
Fluids make up the base of the ENAFS pyramid: There is an increased concern about adequate
fluid intake in elders. Fluid needs may not be higher in elders, but dehydration and constipation are
common problems. These problems can be reduced by drinking appropriate fluids.
R
D
E
IV
The number of servings is different: A minimum numberinstead of a rangeof servings from each
food group is recommended. The number of recommended servings from the Milk, Yogurt, and
Cheese group is higher because elders have increased calcium and vitamin D needs.
T
S
E
A need for fiber is indicated: It is important for elders to get enough fiber, in order to stay regular
and avoid constipation. Food groups in which you can select high fiber foods have the
symbol.
Diverse food choices are included: Ethnic food examples are included in the ENAFS pyramid, to
allow for diverse food preferences and customs. The Meat, Poultry, Fish, Dry Beans, Eggs, Nuts and
Tofu group is divided into two parts, to point out plant sources of protein.
Vitamin and mineral needs may be higher: Elders may need more calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin
B12, as indicated by the flag at the top of the ENAFS pyramid. Ask your physician or a registered
dietitian if a supplement is appropriate for you. It is best to get advice regarding supplement usage
from health professionals who are NOT selling these products.

This diet is designed to provide adequate calories and nutrients to support healthy growth
and to prevent nutrition-related deficiencies during the first six months of life. From 6 to 12
months the diet is designed to increase food variety and provide about 35-50% of calories from
sources other than breast milk or iron-fortified commercial formula.

NUTRIENTS MODIFIED
This diet does not involve nutrient modification. Rather, food varieties and textures advance based on development skills of the infant.
DIETARY GUIDELINES
In the first year, your baby will experience rapid growth and development. Adequate nutrition is needed to support healthy growth. This section will present information that will help you
provide adequate nutrition for your baby. These guidelines are intended for full-term, healthy babies. Although adequate feeding practices have been identified you must remember that your
baby is very unique. His/her growth, development, and needs may differ from those of other babies.
1. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends infants receive human milk exclusively for
the first 6 months of life. Thereafter, breastfeeding should be continued, with the addition of
solid foods, at least through the infants first year. Human milk provides nutritional, immunological and psychosocial benefits to your baby. If you want to know more about breastfeeding, read the lactation section of this manual, Why should I nurse my baby? and other questions mothers ask about breastfeeding, by Pamela K. Wiggins, IBCLC, or ask your registered

E1.8
E
IV
3. For the first four months of life, your infants diet should be only breast milk and/or iron-fortified
commercial formula.
R
D
4. When bottle feeding, hold the baby in a semi-upright position. Do not prop the bottle and do not
feed him/her when they are lying down because this increases the risk of choking. In addition,
the formula can flow into the middle ear increasing the chance of ear infection. Enjoy holding
your baby close to you.
T
S
E
5. Breastfeed or bottle feed on demand; do not put your infant on a rigid feeding schedule.
6. Healthy infants may spit up a small amount of formula at each feeding. This does not affect
growth. Make sure the baby is not drinking too much at a time, that the nipple hole is not too
big, that the baby is not sucking air and that the feeding time is not too noisy. If the baby is
bringing up large amounts of formula, if he seems sick or is not growing well, contact your
pediatrician.
7. Start feeding iron-fortified baby cereal at approximately 4-6 months of age. Start with rice
cereal because it is less allergenic. Mix 1-2 tablespoons of dry cereal with breast milk or ironfortified commercial formula and thin the consistency to desired texture. Feed with an infant
spoon. Do not try to feed cereal from the infants bottle. This can result in overfeeding and
excessive weight gain. Introduce other single-grain fortified infant cereals to add variety.
Introduce only one new food at a time for 3-4 days before trying another. Look for signs of
allergies or intolerance, such as diarrhea or rash.
8. Vegetables and fruits can be introduced at 6 months of age. Begin with small amounts of plain,
strained vegetables or fruits, adding one new food item at a time. Gradually increase the
texture to mashed. When preparing strained vegetables at home, use fresh, high-quality
vegetables rather than canned vegetables that may be high in salt. Do not add salt, butter or

12. Foods that may cause allergies (eggs, shellfish, citrus fruits and chocolate) should not be fed
until close to or after 1 year of age.
13. Do not give infants raisins, nuts, peanut butter, hot dogs, grapes, popcorn, or whole kernel
corn because they may cause choking.
