Dietary considerations for patients with central nervous system diseases

Direct involvement in mealtimes can have a big impact

During meals, the patient or subject moves on his or her own and an active response is obtained.

In active situations, the learning effect is large.

Plan and execute, and get the results according to the plan. This chain allows the patient to accept sensations and acquire the reality of the self and others.

In active situations, planning allows the patient to reacquire the self and the surrounding environment.

Meals involve chewing, facial skin, muscle mobility, upper limb skill movement, and posture.

Chewing not only forms a food bolus that is easy to swallow, but also promotes the reception of taste. Furthermore, the movement of the lower jaw caused by chewing increases the mobility of the head and neck.

Increased mobility of the head and neck increases the movement of the trunk and upper limbs.

The sensory reception that accompanies movement allows the patient to re-perceive the self and the surroundings. It can be reconstructed.
