According to MedlinePlus, good nutrition is essential for maintaining health across all stages of life, from infancy to old age. It can contribute to longevity and reduce the risk of various health issues such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. Healthy eating involves regularly choosing nutritious foods and beverages that provide the body with essential energy and nutrients, including proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water.
As we age, our bodies undergo numerous changes that can impact our nutritional needs and how we respond to food. For many seniors, this means adjusting to dietary restrictions that are often introduced to manage health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, or autoimmune disorders. These restrictions can also stem from new food sensitivities, allergies, or the need to avoid certain foods due to medication interactions.
