Yaşlanma her canlıda görülen, tüm işlevlerde azalmaya sebep olan, evrensel bir süreçtir. Dünya genelinde yaşlı nüfusun hızla arttığı görülmekte ve 2050 yılında her 6 kişiden birinin 65 yaş ve üzerinde olacağı tahmin edilmektedir. Fizyolojik bir süreç olan yaşlılık, bireylerin aktivite düzeyini ve işlevselliğini azaltan/sınırlayan, onları sosyal, fiziksel ve duygusal olarak farklı derecelerde bağımlı kılabilen bir dönemdir. Yaşın ilerlemesiyle fizyolojik, psikolojik, bilişsel, sosyal alanlarda değişiklikler görülmekte, bireyin bilişsel ve fonksiyonel kapasitesi azalırken kronik hastalıkların sayısı artabilmektedir. Yaşlılığa bağlı hastalıkların önlenmesinde, geciktirilmesinde ve tedavisinde beslenme durumunun korunması ve iyileştirilmesi önemlidir. Yaşlı yetişkinlerin beslenme durumunu etkileyen sorunlara karşı uygulanan beslenme çözümlerinin beslenme durumunun iyileştirilmesinde etkili olduğu görülmekte, bu uygulamaların çoğaltılması ve yaygınlaştırılması gerekmektedir. Yaşlı yetişkinlere yönelik beslenme hizmeti uygulamaları; yaşlılıkta besin güvencesizliğini giderme, yaşlı yetişkinlerdeki çeşitli engellilik durumlarının beslenme durumunu olumsuz etkileme olasılığını azaltma ve sosyal yaşamı zenginleştirme potansiyeline sahiptir. Bu kapsamda literatürde günlük yaşam aktivitelerini destekleyici akıllı cihazlar ve teknolojiler, ShopWell, Nutrihealth, MyPlate, PlateJoy gibi mobil, SmoothFood, Meals on Wheels gibi yemek dağıtım uygulamalarının olduğu görülmektedir. Beslenmeye yardımcı teknolojik cihazlar sayesinde yaralanmaların önüne geçilip, sosyal destek sağlayan beslenme hizmeti uygulamaları ile yaşlı yetişkinlerin aktif yaşama sağlıkla devam etmeleri, beslenme durumlarını iyileştirmeleri sağlanabilir. Bu konuda yurtdışında, Türkiye’ye göre daha çeşitli uygulamalar bulunmaktadır. Ülkemizde de yaşlı yetişkinlere yönelik beslenme hizmeti uygulamalarının çeşitlerinin artırılması ve uygulama sonuçlarının izlenmesi önerilmektedir. Bu makalede yaşlılıkta beslenme durumunu etkileyen engellilik sorunlarına yönelik beslenme çözümleri derlenmiştir.

It is important to maintain and improve nutritional status in the prevention, delay and treatment of aging related diseases.
