As you age, your nutritional needs change, which is why it’s important to adjust your diet accordingly to improve the way you think and feel. Eating a diet that is high in fibre and rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes promotes a healthy digestive tract, prevents constipation and maintains healthy body weight. Antioxidant-rich foods, such as berries, cabbage, beans, and spinach help to fight against free radicals and boost immune function. Foods that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids such as fish, walnuts and flaxseeds help improve cognitive function. Following a well-balanced diet is crucial to leading a long, happy and healthy life.
