- Title
Tufts researchers update older-adult food pyramid.
- Abstract
The article reports on the update made by Tufts University researchers to their Food Guide Pyramid for Older Adults in Boston, Massachusetts, to correspond with the new U.S. Department of Agriculture food pyramid. The university's version has changed in appearance and content. The guide continues to emphasize nutrient-dense food choices and fluid balance, but adds more guidance about forms of foods that best meet the unique needs of older people.
