Improved nutritional intake contributes to maintaining health and quality of life in elderly population and also reducing individual and social medical costs. Most of nutrition assistance programs for elderly, such as congregate or home-delivered meal programs, are not currently serviced in rural communities mainly due to low cost efficiency of program operation. However, the needs and necessity of such programs are presumed to be higher in rural area where the population density of elderly at nutritional risk is relatively high. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to develop a community-based meal program for the rural elderly. In 2007, four rural communities located in Jeon-Nam province were selected and the pilot meal program was applied for three months. Following are key features of the meal program model developed in this study: 1) meal production and service are operated by elderly participants to overcome the voluntary personnel shortage 2) utilization of locally-produced foods is maximized to reduce the meal cost, 3) traditional cooking methods are applied to adjust the food preference of elderly, and 4) foods are serviced on site to minimize the food safety problem possibly caused by delivery process. The pilot programs resulted in high satisfaction with the programs of participating elderly. The community-based meal program model developed in this study is expected to be used as an effective nutrition and health intervention model for the rural elderly.

Asia hosts more than half of the world's 1 billion goats and is also where domestication of wild goats began. Goats, including dairy goats, are adapted to a wide variety of harsh environments and thus play key roles as providers of nutrition, food security and socio-economic status to their human owners in many low-income Asian countries. In many countries in Southeast and East Asia, medium and large scale commercial dairy goat farming can be profitable enterprises because of the high price of goat milk, and good demand due to its health and medicinal properties. In some Asian countries, dairy goats play important roles in non-commercial activities, including use as educational animals in elementary schools in Japan and show animals in Indonesia.

지난 1세기 동안의 한국인 식사 습관의 변화를 조사 분석한 결과는 아래와 같이 요약된다. (1) 이조 말기까지 한국인은 다양한 곡류, 채소류, 과실류를 식품으로 이용하였으나 농업의 전문화와 생활 방식의 도시화에 의하여 이들 식품 재료의 종류가 크게 감소하였다. (2) 우리의 전통식단은 영양적으로 균형잡힌 구성을 가지고 있었으나 일제의 수탈과 전쟁 중의 식량난으로 한국인의 영양 섭취는 크게 악화되었다. (3) 전쟁 중 악화된 영양상태를 전통 식사법의 회복으로 극복하려 하지 않고 서양식 식사법의 도입으로 해결하려 하였다. (4) 전쟁중의 기아 상태에서 외국 원조로 공급된 분유와 밀가루의 섭취가 일반화 되었으며, 전후 경제 개발 과정에서 분식 장려 정책과 축산 진흥 정책이 계속되었다. (5) 1970년대 이후의 경제 성장 과정에서 식용 및 사료용 곡물 도입이 급증하게 되었으며 식량 자급율은 50% 이하로 하락하였다. (6) 1970년대에 와서야 우리의 식량공급은 이조 말기의 수준으로 회복되었다. 그러나 그 구성면에서 지방질의 섭취가 크게 증가되는 양상을 나타내었다. (7) 1980년대에는 동물성 식품의 소비 과다, 지방의 과잉섭취 현상이 계속 심화되고 있으며 이러한 현상은 성인병의 발병율 증가 등 국민 보건의 퇴화 조짐과 식량 수입에 따른 경제적 부담을 가중시키고 있다. (8) 우리의 전통 식사법에 근거를 둔 식사목표의 설정과 올바른 식습관 정립을 위한 국민 교육과 정책적 배려가 시급히 요구되고 있다.

Optimal nutrition serves to maintain normal organ function and to preserve body energy stores to guarantee survival during times of shortage of food. Adequate nutrition of intensive care unit (ICU) patients improves outcome, while malnutrition is strongly associated with increased morbidity and mortality rates among critically ill patients. Previously published researches showed that trials of nutritional support in critical illness rarely fulfill basic quality requirements. Nutrition support plays a vital role in the prevention and treatment of nutritional deficiencies in at-risk, critically ill patients. This paper reviewed the challenges in determining critically ill patients' nutrition requirements including nutrition assessment, determination of caloric requirements then providing them with adequate nutrition support while in the ICU with the guidelines published by Society of Critical Care Medicine and American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition. Nutrition support can be effectively enhanced by using the guidelines.
