Saednews: Some foods should not be included in your diet after the age of 65, as they will definitely cause physical problems.
According to the family magazine service of Saednews, quoting from Online Information, a healthy and nutritious diet is one of the key factors for a healthy and active retirement. However, you may need to make changes to your diet after the age of 65.
Emmett Shayo, Assistant Professor of Internal Medicine at Mayo Clinic in Arizona, says that after this age, not everything should be included as a daily food intake because it will definitely cause physical problems. According to Shayo, these foods should not be included in the daily diet at older ages:
Soft-boiled eggs
Soft-boiled eggs are delicious, but due to the risk of salmonella, they can be dangerous for individuals over 65.
Canned fruit
The vitamin C levels in canned fruits are very low. There is also strong evidence that refined sugars cause inflammation in our bodies.
Raw shellfish
To reduce the risk of foodborne illness caused by bacteria, people at risk are advised to avoid eating raw fish and shellfish, raw or unpasteurized milk or cheese, soft cheeses, raw or undercooked eggs or egg products, raw meat or poultry, and raw sprouts.
Grapefruit juice
Grapefruit juice can interfere with medications used for insomnia, anxiety, and high blood pressure. Other fruits and fruit juices like orange juice, cranberry juice, and tomato juice, when consumed in moderation, are the best options for older adults.
5.Coffee and tea
The caffeine in coffee and tea can cause issues if consumed in excess. Caffeine not only prevents many people from getting a good night’s sleep, but it may also increase anxiety and make your heart rate faster or more irregular.
Canned soup
Soup can be a great and healthy meal option, but not all soups are good. Canned foods have excessive salt levels, which should be avoided in older age.
Artificial sweeteners
Artificial sweeteners, especially in soda, are linked to serious heart diseases. Regular consumption of these artificially sweetened soft drinks may have serious consequences: they can increase the risk of vascular events such as heart attacks or strokes.
