The food and nutrient intake of 98 patients in a long-stay geriatric hospital was measured. Intakes of nicotinic acid and iron were reduced in patients requiring help with feeding because of physical disability. This was related to a reduced intake of meat and fish, bread and vegetables other than potatoes. A more generalized reduction in food and nutrient intakes was found in patients with severe mental impairment. Possible causes and remedies for these associations are discussed.
