“…2 For a lactating mother, her micronutrient status determines the health and development of her breast-fed infant, especially during the first 6 months of life. 47,48 Nutrient needs during pregnancy and lactation are higher relative to other physiological stages in the life cycle and, likewise, the requirements for most micronutrients are also higher. Findings from a recent systematic review suggest that interventions to improve the nutritional status of pregnant women result in a statistically significant improvement in mean birth weight (SMD: 0.25; 95% CI: 0.08-0.41), reduced LBW (birth weight < 2500 g; RR: 0.70; 95% CI: 0.57-0.84), and preterm birth (before 37 weeks; RR: 0.73; 95% CI: 0.57-0.95).…”

Adolescence is the period of development that begins at puberty and ends in early adulthood. Most commonly, adolescence is divided into three developmental periods: early adolescence (10-14 years of age), late adolescence (15-19 years of age), and young adulthood (20-24 years of age). Adolescence is marked by physical and sexual maturation, social and economic independence, development of identity, acquisition of skills needed to carry out adult relationships and roles, and the capacity for abstract reasoning. Adolescence is characterized by a rapid pace of growth that is second only to that of infancy. Nutrition and the adolescent transition are closely intertwined, since eating patterns and behaviors are influenced by many factors, including peer influences, parental modeling, food availability, food preferences, cost, convenience, personal and cultural beliefs, mass media, and body image. Here, we describe the physiology, metabolism, and nutritional requirements for adolescents and pregnant adolescents, as well as nutrition-related behavior and current trends in adolescent nutrition. We conclude with thoughts on the implications for nutrition interventions and priority areas that would require further investigation.

“…Approximately 25% of people older than 67 years receive public nursing or other care services, most of whom continue to live in their own homes (Mørk, 2013). The trend towards ageing and being cared for at home may be explained by the fact that it is more cost-effective for municipalities to provide home-based rather than institutional care (VID and Kaupang, 2016). Furthermore, many persons who need nursing and practical care services actually prefer to stay at homeparticularly if their only alternative is to move into a room in a nursing home (Berge, 2017;Ward et al, 2008).…”
