Nutrition is a basic factor of health and well-being of people, affecting the quality and duration of life. Meanwhile, patients with neurodegenerative diseases of the central nervous system are particularly at risk of malnutrition and dehydration with serious health consequences. The article presents an analysis of the main causes of malnutrition in patients with neurodegenerative diseases, and considers a clinical case of including additional nutritional support in the comprehensive management of a patient with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The importance of screening elderly patients for the risks of malnutrition and dehydration during an outpatient medical appointment and including appropriate additional diagnostic and therapeutic (additional enteral nutrition and fluid regimen) measures in the work of an outpatient neurologist is emphasized.
