Malnutrition

Hello, I am Joel Baumgartner, M.D. from Rejuv Medical. When you hear the word malnutrition, what do you think of? Is it the person that is gaunt, anorexic, or is not getting enough calories? But you know, most people that are malnourished are a lot of those people you see walking in and out of that buffet. They are going in and eating a lot of saturated fats, terrible carbohydrates with no nutrition, no good vitamins, no minerals, and lousy sources of protein. So most of the patients we see that are malnourished, they are way overweight. Malnourished is not just the skinny person that’s having problems, it’s actually a lot of us in the population that are eating poorly. At Rejuv Medical, we will deal with the malnutrition, we will teach you how to eat properly, so you can shed all that extra weight, feel great about yourself, and really deal with those nutritional issues that are plaguing your body.
