Eating Healthy As We Grow Older

In the below video Brenda Walsh, an outpatient clinical dietician discusses ways of eating healthy as we grow older.

Making sure to have 3 servings of a fortified dairy product daily and 2 servings of a fatty fish such as salmon every week will supply the required amount of calcium and vitamin D.

Although balanced supplements such as Boost and Ensure can be beneficial they should not be used as a meal replacement.

Brenda also discusses the importance of variety in your diet specifically in relation to vegetables. The more colors of vegetables you consume the more likely you are of getting the proper balance of vitamins and minerals you need.
