A psychosocial approach for a person living with dementia at medium risk of malnutrition. So important to target dietetic input into prevention and early intervention @BDA_Dietitians #BDAresearch

🍦🍦🍦🍦Ice cream was a winner but more work needed on the nutritional composition and study length @BDA_Dietitians #bdaresearch

[BDA Older People Specialist Group @BDA_olderpeople]

Now we are hearing about whether a high protein ice cream is a suitable alternative to prescribed oral nutritional supplements 🍦 😋 I know what I would choose @BDA_Dietitians
