No one mentions the cost of fresh vegetables and fruit when most seniors are on a very tight budget. It makes me angry when people act as if people have a variety of healthy options to purchase, prepare, and eat. They DO have options; however, they cannot afford them.😥

Yup, I think fresh fruit and veg etc should be subsidised or people who are most at risk should be given support.

Frozen has proven to be just as good, if not better from being flash frozen after harvest. Whereas fresh has often been sitting on trucks and and warehouses and have started to degrade. Dollar Tree, Aldi, Walmart, often have frozen under 1.25 and even under 1.00

Not necessarily. If you follow the EWG (environmental watch group) list of the Dirty Dozen, those are the foods best eaten organic because of the tremendous use of pesticides on them. Also if you eat from the fruit and veggies section of your grocery store and NOT the processed middle section of your grocery store, it is NOT expensive. I am a senior and eating food made by God is NOT expensive and much healthier.

After saving for 3 years, we were able to purchase a freeze dryer last Fall. One of the first food groups we freeze dried was fruits. I snack on freeze dried apple slices, or FD blueberries in my cereal, and love freeze dried strawberries as a delicious quick snack. FD Bananas are yummy, too. My understanding is freeze drying retains a lot of nutrients. It's so much easier to open the jar of freeze dried fruits for snacks, and if kept sealed when not in use, they last a very long time. Still miss PopTarts and M&M's (haha), but I've lost eight pounds this month - and have also been working through Silver Sneakers exercise videos. Hitting 70 this year and doing my best not to petrify or become a blob.

@@kimchee94112 In moderation, it's do-able. I look at the 1/3 less sugars and carbs in 4 freeze dried apple slices versus a fruit pop tart. Husband is pre-diabetic (and sugar-aholic) so these help cravings for cookies and sweets. It wouldn't work for brittle diabetes, but we're just finding what CAN work for us. So sorry for your low sugar tolerance :-(

I'm 69 and have been vegan for almost 25 years and was a vegetarian 20 years before that. Eating this way is what feels best for my body. However, everybody's body has its own unique requirements. Eating is definitely not one-size-fits-all. I have a few friends who would love to be able to eat fresh fruits and vegetables but unfortunately their body cannot tolerate it. One way of eating isn't any better than another, it's just different.

Eating healthy and nutritious food is important especially for people our age as we're prone to more serious medical conditions, and this affects how we are on a day to day basis. We really appreciate this tips as it is really necessary to consult your healthcare provider when you are experiencing serious medical conditions and since there really isn't any concrete formula for a diet for everyone but being knowledgable about the kinds of food that are great for your body is critical as well in figuring out which healthy diet is best for you. We'd like to thank Reviving Mind's Health and Wellness coaches for helping us out with staying healthy and helping us live life better.

Might I add that growing a few of these vegetables in as a potted plant helps sway the cost. I use mostly frozen vegetables as they don’t have the additives as canned vegetables have. White rice and pinto beans made at home. If canning 1/2 cup dry beans to a pint jar and fill the rest with water. Good luck friends. We aren’t as stupid as our kids think we are. 😂

I have eaten natural UNPROCESSED foods all my life. That's probably why, at the age of 74, I have no health issues at all. I have no health insurance and don't give a flip about that. In the summertime I turn several cartwheels with my grandchildren on the back lawn and then jump into the pool and race them to the other end of it. I always win, but they tell me this summer they are going to beat me... we'll see. Live is a joy when you take care of yourself and eat right. With no health issues, it's a much better life.

I have to laugh when you suggest talking to your healthcare provider! They get ONE whole course on nutrition in Med school. I highly recommend searching out someone trained in Functional Medicine who totally innerstands about how the body functions and how to feed it. Doctors know squat unless they have functional medicine training. The medical system and Big Pharma are the reason so many folks have so many illnesses. It's BIG business for them. They aren't in the health care business, they are in the 'keep you in meds' business. SMH

I’ wish you were not advocating including pork, beef, chicken and salmon in seniors’ diet. We gave up all animal-derived foods 4 1/2 years ago with only occasional seafood as a treat a few times a year (we live in a beach community). I’m 76, my blood pressure and cholesterol are low, my weight is normal for my age and gender, and I exercise every day. And I’m still working part time. NO ONE should be ingesting animal-derived foods. I would suggest you read The China Study by T. Colin Campbell as a start. Also Dr. Michael Greger, both of whom are giants in the plant-based world.
