There are many starting points for improving our diet

Often only small changes are needed to adjust our own nutrition to rediscover the Taste for Life and vitality.

If our portions become smaller, it is particularly crucial to select high-quality foods which supply us with many important nutrients and thus ensure that our body is optimally supplied.

First steps for a balanced diet

  • Choose foods with high-quality protein, e.g. milk, meat, fish
  • Improve your intake of vitamins and minerals, e.g. eat fresh vegetables and fruits
  • Look out for healthy fats and oils, e.g. olive oil, rapeseed oil
  • Eat less sweets
  • Eat foods that are rich in fibre, e.g. whole grain bread

Keep moving

Whether we play sport once a week, work out at the gym, work in the garden or go for walks: regular physical exercise brings many benefits. 

We retain our mobility, actively participate in social life and strengthen our muscles. Fresh air and exercise can also stimulate our appetite. When we are optimistic and well-balanced, it is easier to maintain a good nutritional status.

Watch your weight

Often we lose weight when we become older. But mostly, we do not lose body fat, weight loss is caused by muscle loss.

Maintaining our muscular strength is an essential factor in maintaining our mobility as we age. Back problems, unsteadiness when going up the stairs and difficulty in walking can often be avoided with regular exercise.

To support our muscle mass the daily diet should contain protein rich food like meat, milk or fish.
