Nutrition Service Providers Guide
Part IPart I Purpose History & Process Importance Implementation
Importance
• Good nutrition is vital to health
• Older adults need nutritious, tasty, culturally appropriate, safe meals for successful aging
• DGAs help assure appropriate food choices to ensure DRIs are met
Nutrition Service Providers Guide
ImplementationImplementation General DGAs Program Planning
Considerations for OAA Nutrition Programs
Tips for Meal Planning Resources
Key Recommendation:Adequate Nutrients
Within Calorie Needs
Consume a variety of nutrient-dense foods and beverages within and
among the basic food groups while choosing foods that limit intake of
saturated and trans fat, cholesterol, added sugars, salt, & alcohol
Program Planning
Consideration
• Provide meals that include all food groups
• Provide meals & beverages high in nutrients but within calorie needs of program participants (nutrient dense)
• Provide opportunities for food choices based on individual needs & cultural food preferences
Tips for Meal Planning
• Seek menu ideas from program participants
• Choose foods with little or no added sugar, sodium or fat
• Control portion sizes to control calories and meal costs
• Limit use of processed food items
Resources
• Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2005 Appendices A and B www.health.gov/dietaryguidelines/
• 5 A Day for Better Health Program, tips and recipes www.5aday.gov/recipes/tips.html
Key Recommendation:Adequate Nutrients
Within Calorie Needs
Meet recommended intakes within energy needs by adopting a balanced eating pattern, such as the DASH Diet
Plan or the USDA Food Guide
Program Planning
Considerations
• Use DASHDASH Plan or USDA Food GuideUSDA Food Guide Both plans take into consideration a range of calorie levels to meet the nutrient needs of men and women at various ages and activity levels
• Provide meals in a calorie range of 550 – 700 calories per meal; the daily recommended level is 1600 to 2000 calories depending on level of activity
Tips for Meal Planning
• Use lists of foods rich in selected nutrients (see DGAs appendices & tables)
• Use standardized recipes & portion sizes specified in recipes
• Identify high sodium foods; offer them infrequently; & offer lower sodium alternatives
• Identify & offer high potassium foods
Resources
• USDA – MyPyramid.gov What counts as….
• Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2005 Appendices A and B www.health.gov/dietaryguidelines/
Key Recommendation:
Adequate Nutrients Within Calorie Needs
People over age 50People over age 50Consume vitamin B-12 in its
crystalline form (fortified foods or supplements)
Program Planning
Considerations
• Use fortified foods to meet the vitamin B-12 requirements since man people over age 50 have reduced ability to absorb naturally occurring vitamin B-12
Tips for Meal Planning
• Include fortified ready to eat whole grain cereals for breakfast meals
• Use fortified ready to eat whole grain cereals in casseroles, in meatloaves, or as breading for fish
• Use fortified ready to eat whole grain cereals in baked goods, i.e. crisp toppings, muffins, cookies

Supplements http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/vitaminb12.asp#h2
Key Recommendation:Adequate Nutrients
Within Calorie Needs
Older adultsOlder adultsConsume extra vitamin D from vitamin D-fortified food and/or
supplements
Program Planning
Considerations
• Select foods rich in vitamin D, a nutrient important for optimal calcium absorption and muscle functioning
• Include vitamin D fortified low-fat or fat-free milk, soy beverage, or orange juice with each meal
Tips for Meal Planning
• Provide low-fat, vitamin D-fortified soy beverage or lactose-free milk as an alternate for those who are lactose intolerant
• Include vitamin D fortified, ready to eat whole grain cereal in food products such as muffins, crisps, or cookies
Resources
• National Institute of Health:
Office of Dietary Supplements http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/vitamind.asp#h2
Key Recommendation:
Sodium & Potassium
Choose and prepare foods with little salt. At the same time, consume potassium-
rich foods, such as fruits and vegetables
Older adults.Older adults. Aim to consume no more than 1,500 mg of sodium per day, and meet the potassium recommendation
(4,700 mg/day) with food
Program Planning
Considerations
• ~10% sodium naturally in foods
• ~75 - 77% added during processing
• Use “no added salt” or “low-sodium”
• Prepare foods without adding salt
• Serve potassium rich fruits & vegetables frequently
Tips for Meal Planning
• Prepare baked or boiled potatoes instead of boxed mashed potatoes
• Select fresh or frozen vegetables or low sodium canned vegetables
• Use fresh or frozen lean meats instead of cured cuts of meat
• Avoid processed meats or pre-prepared items
