Despite the identification of a greater risk for
inappropriate food ingestion frequency among some
participants, it was observed that multidisciplinary
monitoring has contributed to improve such frequencies,
especially among those in the group and less than
six months from the last appointment. Based on this
improvement of nutritional quality, it has been possible
to identify that multiprofessional service has had a
positive result. About this point, it is important to stress
that the encouragement to programmes of food guidance
could bring about the development of an appropriate
nutritional state. The promotion and maintenance of
these habits within this age bracket will lead to healthier
adults who have a lower risk of chronic non-contagious
diseases(18).
