We live in a remarkable time in human history, when our population is getting older and living longer thanks to modern medicine. But, because we have excellent diagnostic medical equipment, knowledge, and interventions that can help identify and treat age-related illnesses, we tend to be reactionary rather than preventive. Yet, when it comes to ageing, the "how" we live is just as important as the "how long."
We often see ageing as something that happens to us rather than something we can participate in. We can address our diets, fitness, and hydration to ensure we are working with our aging process rather than against it. If you're reading this and are below 50, every habit you put in place now is a vote in favour of feeling your best for the rest of your life. If you're over 50, these simple changes to your diet and lifestyle will help you make the best decisions to improve your vitality today.
NUTRITION & DEFICIENCIES
As we age, our appetite and food consumption will naturally decline. However, simply because your energy needs decrease doesn't mean your nutrition needs do-quite the opposite happens. There is a remarkable spike in nutrient deficiencies as you age, and these nutritional deficiencies can impact your health. These deficiencies may result from medication use or eating less variety of fruits and vegetables due to decreased hunger.
