Answer to Question 1

Social history, 24-hour diet recall, food diary for 3 to 4 days, computer analysis of the diet, review for any food-drug interactions, review of medical records, clinical examinations, and review of results of any biochemical tests and anthropometrical measurements.

Answer to Question 2

Increase protein, carbohydrates, and calories. Use appetite stimulants and flavoring agents. Encourage use of sugar/honey in drinks. Avoid foods that cause intolerances or increase gastric motility. Limit fiber in the diet. Minimize odors or unpleasant sights at mealtime. Perform oral care prior to meals. Ensure adequate fluid intake. Give small, frequent feedings.
