Good Nutrition for Healthy Ageing - Specialist dietitian eating advice for older adults.
Nutrition plays a vital role in supporting your health as you get older.
I am Didi, a registered dietitian with almost 10 years experience in working with older adults. I have worked with adults trying to optimise their health as they move into retirement, and with adults facing new health challenges (such as stroke, diabetes, heart disease) in hospital settings. I have seen the challenges of poor nutritional health, and supported many to improve their health with good eating habits.
In this seminar, I share my top tips for good nutrition for healthy ageing. I discuss the key topics I usually cover with my clients. I look into the role of protein, omega 3 fats, fibre and more.
How can you optimise your health with good eating habits to support good ageing? This is the video for you.

    Very good advice. I have Ibs almost 35 years. Diagnosis itself took 10 years.ibs s a new disease and many are not aware of it. Each person differs.so try your diet and look for effect.i am still trying. Take small amounts ie eat half full.eat regularly. Don't skip meals.you need to listen to your stomach.any discomfort after food is a sign that the food or amounts did not suit.chicken suts me well.

    @dee9692 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Way out of touch with the modern biochemistry of nutrition. For example, you discuss "cholesterol" without exploring the relationships between the various types, the ratio between Triglycerides v HDL for instance (a highly significant index of likely CVD), and merely discuss them as separate categories and ends in themselves. The old good and bad cholesterol nonsense. And relatively recent research actually shows (without qualification) that people with higher Cholesterol levels have a dramatically lower incidence of mortality from cardiovascular disease than those with lower readings. All cholesterol is NOT the same, and not good OR bad in themselves. It's in the peer reviewed academic literature (not merely TH-cam raves) so don't take my word for it. Go and read it and take it into consideration for your next talk if you're serious about this stuff.

      It is definitely one of the trickier diets out there. And before starting this diet, I indeed highly recommend trying various other, less invasive, strategies to improve gut health first. But for a small and carefully selected group of people, this diet can be life-changing and give back control over their gut symptoms.

    In addition to eating regularly and at the same skedule, go to bed and wake up at the same time too and don't sleep throughout the morning, especially when you suffer from constipation, because your bowel movements are better in the morning. Also, eating a good amount of insoluble fiber in my breakfast when I'm having constipation symptoms, works wonders. The water intake and the exercise are crucial! A good way of increasing fiber intake and water consumption is eating soup with lots of vegetable's. These are some things that seem to make it better to manage my symptoms of constipation.
