Eat popcorn, cheese for healthy ageing

Are you always stressed thinking about ageing? And, it’s your unhealthy lifestyle that has been causing havoc when it comes to ageing. Then, here is a little secret to healthy ageing.

According to a research, people who eat a balanced diet, avoid smoking, and exercise regularly lead longer, healthier lives.

So, here are the following tips that can help you focus on foods for key parts of the body, important to healthy ageing:

•Bones: String cheese is not just for the young. Add calcium to your diet by snacking on a stick of string cheese when hunger strikes.

•Muscles: For a quick and easy snack, look for a nutrition bar with added soy protein or add a packet of soy protein to your favourite smoothie.

•Eyes: Punch up your intake of the eye-popping nutrients lutein and zeaxanthin by making a spinach salad with slices of oranges. Many multivitamin and mineral dietary supplements also include lutein.

•Heart: Popcorn is a great source of whole grains.

•Mind: Salmon or tuna that is canned in water or in a shelf-stable pouch can make easy and affordable meals.

A positive attitude and regular physical activity is the key to maintaining good health at any age.
