Question

'old people need less of proteins, carbohydrates and fats than young children.' justify this statement

Answer 1

The nutritional requirements for elderly adults differ from people in other age groups. According to an article published in 2006 in the "Japanese Journal of Geriatrics," the definition of "elderly" should be those persons over the age of 75. According to the World Health Organization, elderly people are more at risk for being malnourished. Malnourishment commonly occurs because the elderly don’t have the funds to buy certain foods, they suffer from illness, or they follow a poor diet. As people age, their need for some nutrients increases, while their need for other nutrients decreases.

Answer 2

Old people need less amount of proteins, carbohydrates and fats than young children because old people who are not active , need less energy.
