title: Improving the palatability of oral nutritional supplements.
abstract: One in three adults admitted to hospital has malnutrition and this rate is even higher in the over-65 age group. Malnutrition in older people contributes to serious illness, functional loss and altered self-perception of health. Oral nutritional supplements are often prescribed but wastage is high because many people dislike the taste, finding them too sweet.
