Summary
Malnutrition or its risk is common among older people. To maintain adequate nutrition, increased meal frequency is important. In addition to main meals, regular consumption of nutrient- and energy-dense snacks is recommended. The study examines the post-meal responses to dairy- and berry-based snacks tailored for older people. The plasma concentrations of glucose, insulin and free fatty acids are measured during three hours after snack consumption. In addition, subjective satiety responses and heart rate variability are recorded.
