Rehabilitation nutrition in general and family medicine

Editorial

Rehabilitation nutrition in general and family medicine

Hidetaka Wakabayashi. J Gen Fam Med. .

Abstract

Rehabilitation and nutrition are included in general and family medicine. Rehabilitation nutrition care process includes rehabilitation nutrition assessment and diagnostic reasoning, rehabilitation nutrition diagnosis, rehabilitation nutrition goal setting, rehabilitation nutrition intervention, and rehabilitation nutrition monitoring. I expect that many general and family physicians are interested in rehabilitation nutrition, sarcopenia, and sarcopenic dysphagia and prevent iatrogenic sarcopenia.
