Key Points Malnutrition in Older Adults Malnutrition is common in older adults and has serious adverse consequences. The cause of malnutrition is usually multifactorial, owing to the interaction of physiological changes of aging, physical and mental impairments, diseases, medications, social settings, and dietary factors. The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition framework is used for the syndromic diagnosis of malnutrition. Once malnutrition is confirmed, a careful search for the underlying causes is indicated. Effective guideline-based strategies are available to prevent and treat malnutrition in older adults.
