    Friendly Ideas for Healthy Eating

    Often we have a tendency to approach our
    daily dietary needs with a lack luster attitude. We are fearful of moving
    outside of our comfort zone when it comes to trying new foods. Frequently we
    feel that “well, I didn’t like it as a kid so I won’t like it now”, forgetting
    that over the years our taste buds change.

    Good nutrition is important at any age. Eating
    well will help you to feel better every day and may even help prevent heart
    disease, osteoporosis, diabetes and some cancers.

    As we get older we need fewer calories but
    the same amount, or even higher amounts, of certain vitamins and minerals. This
    can make meal planning a daunting task.

    A major key to healthy eating is planning your
    meals accordingly. Start with planning for three meals a day. Skipping a meal,
    especially breakfast, will make it difficult for you to get all of
    your daily nutritional requirements.

    1. Try one different
    food each month. You might just find a new favorite.

    2. Keep a list of
    menu items for when you are out of ideas.

    3. Swap ideas
    with family and friends to add variety.

    4. Start your day
    with 100% juice.
