Slide 1-

Session Three: Links between Nutrition and HIV
Slide 2-

2 Purpose Provide information about the relationship between nutrition and HIV.
Slide 3-

3 Learning Objectives Describe the relationship between nutrition and infection. Explain how HIV affects nutrition. Explain how nutrition affects HIV.
Slide 4-

4 Session Outline Nutrition and infection Relationship between nutrition and HIV Effects of poor nutrition on HIV and IADS Effective of HIV and AIDS on nutrition
Slide 5-

5 Nutrition and Infection Poor nutrition increases vulnerability to infection. Infections cause and aggravate poor nutrition. Poor nutrition weakens the immune system. Poor nutrition helps increase the incidence, severity, and duration of infections. Symptoms of infections lead to weight loss and growth faltering, further weakening immunity.
Slide 6-

6 HIV and Nutrition: Effects on the Immune System HIV progressively destroys the immune system, leading to opportunistic infections (OI) and debilitation. Pre-existing undernutrition makes it difficult for PLHIV to stay healthy and productive. Both HIV and undernutrition limit the ability to fight infection and stay healthy.
Slide 7-

7 Nutrition and HIV: A Vicious Cycle Weight loss Loss of muscle tissue and body fat Vitamin and mineral deficiencies Increased nutritional needs Reduced immune function Increased susceptibility to infection Weakness and reduced productivity

Slide 10-

10 Nutrition’s Effect on HIV Weakened immune system Increased susceptibility to OI Slower healing Possibly faster disease progression Poorer response to treatment Sense of despair, depression
Slide 11-

11 HIV’s Effect on Nutrition Reduced food intake Increased energy needs Altered nutrient metabolism and absorption
Slide 12-

12 1. Reduced Food Intake Symptoms of OI (e.g., mouth sores, taste changes, nausea, appetite loss) Side effects of medications Reduced quantity or quality of food
Slide 13-

13 2. Increased Energy Needs Because of viral replication and OI Asymptomatic: 10% more than healthy people Symptomatic: 20−30% more than healthy people Symptomatic children with weight loss: 50−100% more than healthy people No change in protein, fat, and micronutrient requirements for PLHIV Protein: 12−15% of energy intake Micronutrients: 1 RDA, possibly more if deficiencies
Slide 14-

14 3. Poor Absorption Can be caused by HIV infection and OI symptoms (diarrhea, vomiting) Can occur at any stage Results in excess nutrient loss
Slide 15-

15 AIDS-Associated Wasting Syndrome Increases morbidity and mortality Associated with Reduced energy intake Infections and gastrointestinal disorders including diarrhea and malabsorption Metabolic changes
Slide 16-

16 Changes in Body Composition Body responds differently after illness Amino acids used for energy Fat continues to accrue Nutrient intake may be adequate, but inadequate nutrient storage and use Increased resting energy expenditure
Slide 17-

17 Nutrition in the Different Phases of HIV
Slide 18-

18 Nutrition in the Different Phases of HIV, Cont. Asymptomatic phase: Energy and nutrient needs increase because of virus replication Symptomatic phase: Energy and nutrient needs increase even more because of virus replication and the effects of HIV-related symptoms
Slide 19-

19 Evidence Base Evidence of association between nutritional status and OI, disease progression, and survival Limited evidence of impact of food and micronutrient (MN) supplementation; studies ongoing Some positive outcomes from MN supplements, but impacts of specific MN unknown (mixed evidence on some MN, such as vitamin A) WHO recommendation: 1 RDA MN for PLHIV, if possible through diet, possibly more if specific deficiencies
Slide 20-

20 Conclusions HIV affects nutrition by: Reducing food consumption Impairing nutrient absorption Increasing energy needs Causing HIV-associated wasting Changing metabolism Changing body composition Poor nutrition affects HIV by: Decreasing immunity Slowing the healing process Possibly hastening disease progression
