People of retirement age should be more responsible in their choice of food products.
Particular attention should be paid to oils. Preference should be given to flaxseed, said nutritionist Elena Solomatina.
She noted that such a product contains more omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, which prevent the development of atherosclerosis, improve heart function, and reduce inflammation.
The bottom line is that flaxseed oil prevents strokes and heart attacks.
In addition, it is worth noting that omega-3 is necessary for the brain.
The product also has a positive effect on the condition of joints.
Solomatina added that this element suppresses the work of stress hormones. As a result, irritability is removed.
“It is enough to simply add flaxseed oil to your diet, and your emotional instability will be lower,” Moscow 24 quotes the specialist as saying.
