4. Dementia and Nutrition
As Dementia progresses, your loved one may experience an altered sense of taste or smell.
The ability to interpret sensations such as hunger, thirst and feeling full may be reduced or lost.
Distraction and not understanding that food is to be eaten may impair nutrition intake.
Over time your loved one may lose their appetite or start over-eating.
