What does good nutrition look like after 60? 🥗

Nutritional Strategies become increasingly important as we age. Appetite can change. Thirst can become less reliable. Muscle maintenance, hydration, fibre, calcium, vitamins, and protein all deserve thoughtful attention.

For older South Africans, there is valuable guidance specifically developed around local foods, dietary habits and the realities of ageing.

Our latest article looks at:
🥕 Nutrient-dense everyday foods
💧 Hydration and changing thirst
🍳 Protein and maintaining strength
🥣 Appetite, chewing and swallowing
🧂 Salt, sugar and processed foods
🛡️ Food safety and individual health needs

There is also an important question for families considering retirement accommodation: How does a retirement community understand and respond to changing nutritional needs?

Good retirement care considers the whole person, including the everyday needs that can have a meaningful influence on comfort and quality of life.
