Why Healthy Eating Can Be Challenging for Seniors

Loss of mobility or strength

As they get older, a lot of seniors deal with loss of mobility and strength. Therefore, standing in the kitchen for a long time while cooking, carrying heavy pots and pans or even going grocery shopping can easily become a problem for your aging loved one.

The "convenience" of frozen meals and fast food

Seniors who find grocery shopping too difficult can easily turn to frozen meals, processed foods, and take-outs. Unfortunately, these meals often contain unnatural preservatives and too much salt that can negatively affect one’s health.

Lack of appetite due to medication or depression

Some medications as well as mental health concerns can cause a lack of appetite. Seniors who do not feel hungry or find cooking for one person pointless often decide to skip important meals.

Luckily, Visiting Angels Loveland can help. Our companion home care providers can prepare nutritious meals for your loved made from only quality ingredients.
