Abstract

Nutritional status is a state of the body that is a reflection of what we eat everyday. Nutritional status is said to be good if our diet is balanced. That is, the amount, frequency and type of food we consume must be in accordance with needs. The type of food is a variety of foods eaten at each meal. A good diet must meet the principles of balanced and healthy nutrition, namely dishes consisting of staple foods, side dishes, vegetables and fruits. The frequency of eating is the amount of food eaten in a day. The frequency of eating well is 3 times a day. The purpose of this study was to determine the description of the type, frequency of eating and nutritional status of the elderly at PSTW Khusnul Khotimah, Pekanbaru City.
