The Importance of Nutritious Meals for Seniors
A healthy appetite for life starts with our nutritious meals.
While good nutrition is a critical part of your health, it has never been more important than it is as you get older. Optimal nutritional status is a cornerstone for healthy aging. Thanks to their ability to influence biochemical and biological processes, nutrients are considered modifiable factors associated with a reduced risk for chronic diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, osteoporosis, frailty, falls, and certain cancers. In addition, preserving or restoring adequate nutritional status is a key factor in delaying the onset of chronic diseases and accelerating recovery from acute illnesses.
As we age, multiple factors influence how we acquire, prepare, and consume food, including physiologic changes, chronic diseases, access to food, socioeconomic status, social isolation, environment, and cognition. At Buckner Retirement Services, we understand these factors contribute to your overall health and ability to meet daily nutrient needs. Therefore, we have built a culinary and nutrition program that pays close attention to everyday dietary patterns to assist you in obtaining optimal nutrition, while fostering an environment that helps you manage factors that could interfere with healthy aging and your quality of life. Additionally, we understand the fundamental role that food plays in our social interactions and know it is deeply rooted in our personal identities and practices.
At Buckner Retirement Services, food is so much more than just nutrients. It’s a fundamental part of our health, relationships, culture, and well-being. We built our culinary program around research that shows regularly eaten meals with others tend to be more nutritious and healthier. Our approach helps optimize nutritional status and health while providing a culture that brings our community together by creating bonds and a sense of belonging and security.
