Take Care of Yourself

It can be tough for senior members to find support and care from their families. Luckily, you can play your part by taking control of your nutrition. Surround yourself with good company. It is no secret that relationships play an essential part in the way we process challenges and enjoy life. This includes not only family, but also partners, friends, neighbors and even pets.

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.
