The main mistake older men and women make up their diet is simply monotony.

As a result, a deficiency of some useful elements begins.

It is important to remember that nutrition should be varied so that the body can easily receive vitamins and minerals from different groups, and the person ultimately feels good.

Nutritionist Elena Solomatina spoke about this in more detail, writes “ Moscow 24 ”.

She noted that the diet of the elderly should contain fats, proteins and carbohydrates so that the immune system or muscles do not suffer.

Protein is especially useful in this case. It is quite easy to get it from food. To do this, take cheese or eggs, low-fat cottage cheese, and fish or dietary poultry or rabbit meat will help to replenish the deficiency.

You need fats, which are easy to get from fermented milk products, red fish, herring, mackerel and cheese.

Carbohydrates from vegetables, fruits, cereals and bread will provide a person with energy.
