Diets

Our Meals on Wheels program offers many therapeutic diets, including those listed below. All meals meet one-third of the Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) for those age 60 and over. Although a specific diabetic diet is not available, our regular meals are approved for stable diabetics. Other diets include:
  • Lactose-free
  • Low sodium
  • Low fat
  • High calorie
  • Vegetarian
  • No sauce
  • Pureed, ground or mechanical (coarsely chopped) meals for those who have difficulty chewing and swallowing
  • Renal (for kidney dialysis patients)

We will review your dietary requirements with you or your designated representative when you sign up for Meals on Wheels, and will develop a menu to accommodate any special needs you may have.
