As you age, you need to take a more serious approach to planning your diet.

For example, not every fish is suitable for the diet of older people.

Nutritionist Elena Solomatina spoke in more detail about which fish is best to avoid, writes the publication “ Moscow 24 ”.

As the doctor noted, tilapia is considered the most dangerous fish for pensioners.

She added that much depends on how the fish were fed and where they were raised.

If the conditions were bad, the product will contain a lot of toxins, heavy metals, which becomes dangerous to health. Still, it is necessary to take into account that with age the body's defenses become weaker.

Solomatina added that such tilapia can be included in the diet of those who are completely healthy. However, such fish can be eaten no more than once a month.

The nutritionist also told journalists that eating tuna can also pose a risk. But it all depends on the age of the fish, which lives a long time and accumulates mercury.
