Nutritional needs of those over 80

Suggested nutritional needs for those over 80 years of age

We can prepare soups of greens and yellow foods. When we buy organic whole chicken, we can use the bone broth to combine with various veggies and save them in the freezer for weeks supply. Most seniors eat a small serving. Some do not take any nutritional drink and rely on family members or caregivers to give them gourmet or healthy meals. Supplementation is a must when healthy foods are not served regularly. A dessert can be served in moderation.

  • Fresh ginger
  • Enzymes from pineapple and papaya
  • Melatonin, we bought liquid from Wallgreens
  • Green tea, Dandelion tea, tea of marshmallow root and nettle
  • Lemons and other citrus
  • Apple cider vinegar with mother
  • More prune juice and real dried prunes
  • Blueberries
  • Kiwi
  • Banana
  • Hormone-free eggs, soft boiled or scrambled with cooked onions, cilantro and mushrooms
