The sequel of refeeding syndrome adversely affect nearly every organ system and include cardiac dysrhythmias, heart failure, acute respiratory failure, coma, paralysis, nephropathy, and liver dysfunction. The primary cause of the metabolic response to refeeding is the shift from stored body fat to carbohydrate as the primary fuel source. Serum insulin levels rise, causing intracellular movement of electrolytes for use in metabolism. The best advice when initiating nutritional support is to "start low and go slow". Recommendations to reduce the risk of refeeding syndrome
Therefore, they require an energy-dense diet high in protein, fats, and vitamins. Patients also receive additional A, D, E and K vitamins. Poor absorption also hinders patients’ ability to gain weight and to grow normally. However, the most serious impact of Cystic Fibrosis is still breathing.

Unit 21 Nutrition for Health & Social Care Task 3 P3 This is a report on the wide range of possible influences on dietary intake and nutritional health ranging from health conditions which dictate what a person can and can’t eat to lifestyle. Medical Disorders There are lots of medical disorders that dictate what we eat, such as : • Non-insulin Dependent Diabetes (Type 2 Diabetes) is not as severe as Insulin Dependent Diabetes (Type 1 Diabetes) as it can be controlled by diet alone.

43________________________________________________________________ An electrolyte is a an ionic compound that breaks apart into positive and negative ions in a solution. The doctor was so concerned with the amount of electrolytes in eugene’s body because Electrolytes are one things that help the heart contract and relax and can lead to cardiac arrhythmia, which is the most common electrolyte deficiency. And when you are drinking your heart rate rises and that’s where the dangerous part come on. And if he is low on electrolytes, specifically sodium, the they can’t correct it quickly or it could cause an abnormal flow of water in or out of the cells which in turn could cause brain damage. If Eugene’s blood PH is really low than administering sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) will help him get back to the range of 7.35 - 7.45.

Hydrogenation also extends the shelf life of these fatty acids, and preserves them through better stabilization. “When the hydrogen’s are on opposite sides of the double bond, called the trans configuration, the fatty acid is a trans fatty acid.” (Grosvenor & Smolin, 2006) Trans fatty acids can increase your risk of heart disease. Saturated and trans fats are considered the worst for your health due to the proven increased risk of cardiovascular disease, including stroke, and high cholesterol levels according to the American Heart Association (2010).
