According to a new research review published in The Lancet, which analyzed nearly 20 years of dietary data from 195 countries, poor nutrition was linked to 20% of all deaths worldwide in 2017. That makes nutrition a bigger health threat than smoking.
At Assisting Hands we are mindful about the importance of nutrition and work with our caregivers to find alternatives that support healthy nutrition at home. That is why we put together this blog with delicious ideas to eat well and avoid being part of the scary statistic mentioned above.
Putting together a healthy plate is easy when you make half your plate fruits and vegetables. It’s also a great way to add color, flavor, and texture to your meals. Your plate will be stacked with healthy vitamins, minerals, and fiber. All you need to do is make 2 cups of fruit and 4 1⁄2 cups of vegetables your daily goal intake.
Try the following tips to enjoy more fruits and vegetables every day.
Some of these ideas might sound challenging to execute, but our caregivers will be there to help you prepare delicious, healthy food. They can do the grocery shopping, visit local farmers for affordable organic vegetables, and even help you with gardening your own herbs to improve taste, add safe fermentation or sprouting to increase the nutrition content and make eating healthy affordable and enjoyable.
Assisting Hands® Home Care offers a wide range of in-home services such as healthy cooking and grocery shopping to meet your dietary needs. We take pride in helping our clients remain happy and healthy at home.
