Nutritional care is an essential component in the management of neurological disorders because these conditions often affect swallowing, chewing, appetite, digestion, mobility, cognition, and metabolic requirements. Disorders such as stroke, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury require individualized nutrition therapy to improve clinical outcomes and quality of life. The primary goal is to maintain adequate nutritional status while addressing disease-specific challenges. One of the most important goals is to prevent and treat malnutrition. Many neurological patients experience reduced food intake due to dysphagia, cognitive impairment, depression, fatigue, or motor dysfunction. Malnutrition delays recovery, weakens immunity, increases the risk of infections, prolongs hospitalization, and reduces muscle strength. Nutritional assessment should be performed regularly to identify individuals at risk and initiate appropriate dietary interventions. Another major goal is to maintain optimal energy and protein intake. Neurological disorders may increase energy expenditure because of muscle spasticity, involuntary movements, or infections, while reduced physical activity may lower energy needs in some patients. Adequate protein intake is essential for preserving muscle mass, supporting tissue repair, promoting wound healing, and preventing muscle wasting. The diet should be tailored according to the patient's age, disease condition, body weight, and level of physical activity. Ensuring adequate hydration is
