Help clients to reach their potential or nurture a more intimate relationship with your own dietary requirements.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.omicsonline.org\/the-importance-of-appropriate-nutrition-assessment-and-nutrition-education-for-older-adults-2155-9600.1000e121.php?aid=17648\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shahla Wunderlich<\/a> at the Department of Health and Nutrition Sciences, Montclair State Univeristy, USA, agrees. She says\u00a0that this is especially true for older adults:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;As the population of older adults continues to increase, there is even more urgency to establish nutrition assessment standards to evaluate the nutritional status of this vulnerable population, and to provide appropriate nutrition education and intervention.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There is a high prevalence of undernutrition among seniors, and the cases of insufficient energy or micro and macronutrients are alarming. Unfortunately, this nutritional state is often misdiagnosed because of inappropriate assessment. The nutrition diagnosis needs to be accurate in order to provide effective intervention.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The nutrition assessment of older people is sometimes challenging because older adults are often dealing with chronic medical conditions that require multiple pharmaceuticals for therapy. Therefore, drug-nutrient interactions are a prime concern among this population group.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Trifocus Fitness Academy&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/trifocusfitnessacademy.co.za\/course\/nutrition-courses\/specialised-nutrition\/\">Specialised Nutrition Course<\/a>\u00a0will not only give you a sound understanding of nutrition plans, which you can design\u00a0for a variety of nutrition needs, but will also give you insight into legal and illegal substances surrounding performance enhancement.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/trifocusfitnessacademy.co.za\/course\/nutrition-courses\/specialised-nutrition\/\">Click here <\/a>if you would like more information about this nutritional course.<\/p>\n<h3>Every\u00a0Personal Trainer\u00a0Needs to Know\u00a0About Core Strength<\/h3>\n<p>Building core strength, cultivating flexibility, and helping your clients realise their body\u2019s potential\u00a0 requires a sound understanding of Yoga and Pilates.
