憂鬱症個案常因心理因素導致食慾減退或厭食，營養攝取不足會進一步影響體能與情緒恢復。護理介入的核心在於減輕病人的進食壓力並增加熱量攝取密度。少量多餐能避免因一次性提供大份量餐點而造成的心理負擔與飽足感過快，並有助於維持穩定的血糖與營養補充。臨床上，應觀察進食量並鼓勵病人逐步建立進食習慣，而非給予過多壓力。
Providing small, frequent meals reduces the psychological burden of large portions and helps maintain stable blood sugar levels, which is essential for clients with depression who may experience appetite loss or early satiety.
