NUTRITIOUS FOODS
Nutrient-rich foods nourish the body with what it needs and help it in healing and repairing itself. At Albuquerque Home Care, clients are given a framework of healthy eating options to choose from which contribute to a wholesome lifestyle. Just as a basic start, the body needs a half teaspoon of air dried sea salt, a good oil such as extra virgin olive oil and an organic source of bulk each day.
As the body ages, it loses its ability to produce the enzymes necessary to break down cooked food. When this occurs the body will store rotting food, causing negative consequences on the body. The sea salt will help with that, but an unheated source of hydrochloric acid should also be taken.
For an easy way to eat a days worth of fruit and veggies, a green smoothie can be made. In a blender, add 2 cups chopped organic spinach, frozen berries (especially blueberries), a fresh chopped banana, coconut milk, a little water, a little olive oil and/or flax seed oil, a sprinkle of sea salt and some protein powder of choice. Many Albuquerque Rehabilitation Care clients benefit from eating choices such as these every day, and you can too. Try one smoothie a week and work your way to a healthier, happier you.
WATER CONSUMPTION
It is important to flush ones body with plenty of pure water every day. The amount needed for the day should be measured out and consumed by six in the evening. An easy rule of thumb for the senior is to drink about one half ounce of water per pound of weight. Water cleanses cells and in combination with a good source of fiber, allows bowels to keep moving properly.
EXERCISE
Exercise is not only for those wishing to lose weight. For the elderly person it is a way to keep the body flexible and moving. Twenty to thirty minutes of low impact exercise is a good amount that will not overly stress the body.
