Older adults are more likely to have an underlying medical condition that can affect their dietary needs. If you've been diagnosed with hypertension or a similar condition, it's important to adjust your diet accordingly. Be sure to avoid highly sweetened beverages like lemonade or soda, sugary foods like maple syrup and candy, alcohol, and saturated fats if you have high blood pressure.
Gastrointestinal issues are also common among seniors. Try to steer clear of inflammatory foods like citrus fruits, fried foods, beans, artificial sugar, and spicy foods if you have a gastrointestinal condition.
