Men and women who are already 60 years old should pay more attention to their diet.

After all, a person’s health depends on the products he chooses.

It is necessary to limit the amount of animal fats, i.e. saturated fats, which are harder to digest.

We are talking about pork or lamb. Such types of meat should be replaced with more dietary ones, for example, turkey, chicken or fish.
