Why do people lose interest in eating and cooking as they get older?

Some people lose interest in eating and cooking because their senses of taste and smell change with age. Foods a person once enjoyed might seem less flavorful as he or she gets older. Some medicines can change the sense of taste or make a person feel less hungry.

Problems with chewing, digestion, or gas can make an older person lose interest in eating. In addition, some older adults don’t eat well because they find it hard to shop for food or cook. Others don’t enjoy meals because they often eat alone.

Not eating enough or avoiding some foods could mean that a person misses out on needed vitamins, minerals, fiber, or protein. Not eating enough could also mean that the person doesn’t get enough calories.

Eating Well As You Get Older Benefits of Eating Well Eating well is vital for everyone at all ages. Whatever your age, your daily food choices can make an important difference in your health and in how you look and feel.

Eating Well Promotes Health Eating a well-planned, balanced mix of foods every day has many health benefits. For instance, eating well may reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, bone loss, some kinds of cancer, and anemia. If you already have one or more of these chronic diseases, eating well and being physically active

may help you better manage them. Healthy eating may also help you reduce high blood pressure, lower high cholesterol, and manage diabetes.

Eating well gives you the nutrients needed to keep your muscles, bones, organs, and other parts of your body healthy throughout your life. These nutrients include vitamins, minerals, protein, carbohydrates, fats, and water.

Eating Well Promotes Energy Eating well helps keep up your energy level, too. By consuming enough calories — a way to measure the energy you get from food —you give your body the fuel it needs throughout the day.

The number of calories needed depends on how old you are,

The information was provided by NIHSeniorHealth and developed by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) at NIH.

whether you’re a man or woman, your height and weight, and how active you are.

Food Choices Can Affect Weight Consuming the right number of calories for your level of physical activity helps you control your weight, too. Extra weight is a concern for older adults because it can increase the risk for diseases such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease and can increase joint problems. Eating more calories than your body needs for your activity level will lead to extra pounds.

If you become less physically active as you age, you will probably need fewer calories to stay at the same weight. Choosing mostly nutrient-dense foods — www.vall ey rev ue .co m

foods which have a lot of nutrients but relatively few calories — can give you the nutrients you need while keeping down calorie intake.

Food Choices Affect Digestion Your food choices also affect your digestion. For instance, not getting enough fiber or fluids may cause constipation. Eating more whole-grain foods with fiber, fruits and vegetables or drinking more water may help with constipation.

Make One Change at a Time Eating well isn’t just a “diet” or “program” that’s here today and gone tomorrow. It is part of a healthy lifestyle that you can adopt now and stay with in the years to come.

Offering Apartments & Cottages Great Location, Community Connection and Care for the Future!

To eat healthier, you can begin by taking small steps, making one change at a time. For instance, you might • take the salt shaker off your table. Decreasing your salt intake slowly will allow you to adjust.

• switch to whole-grain bread, seafood, or more vegetables and fruits when you shop.

These changes may be easier than you think. They’re possible even if you need help with shopping or cooking, or if you have a limited budget.

Checking With Your Doctor If you have a specific medical condition, be sure to check with your doctor or registered dietitian about foods you should include or avoid.

You Can Start Today Whatever your age, you can start making positive lifestyle changes today. Eating well can help you stay healthy and independent — and look and feel good — in the years to come.

Consider the DASH Eating Plan Another balanced eating plan is the DASH eating plan. DASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. It is designed to help prevent or manage high blood pressure, or hypertension. The plan suggests which foods to eat and how much to eat. Your doctor may recommend other eating plans to help manage health conditions that occur as you get older. For more information about DASH, visit www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/ health-topics/topics/dash. Or, contact the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute at 1-301-5928573 or 1- 240-629-3255 (TTY)

Visit MyPlate.gov The MyPlate plan from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, or USDA, can help you choose a mix of healthy foods that are right for you.

For more information, go to the website at www.ChooseMyPlate.gov.

The Best Way to Get Nutrients Wholesome foods provide a wealth of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients you need to stay healthy.

Eating properly is the best way to get these nutrients. However, if you have concerns that you are not eating as well as you should, you should talk to your doctor about taking a multivitamin and mineral supplement.

REFLECTING ON ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS PAST

Sesquicentennial Commemoration of the American Civil War

11th Annual Remembrance Illumination The Gettysburg Foundation

On Nov. 23, 2013, citizens from across the nation will gather at the Gettysburg National Military Park Soldiers’ National Cemetery to remember “those who here gave their lives that that nation might live.” In commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the Gettysburg Address, each Civil War soldier's grave in Soldiers’ National Cemetery in Gettysburg will be marked with a luminary from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m.

This annual tribute solemnly commemorates the sacrifices made at Gettysburg and other battlefields.

Individuals and organizations are encouraged to join the Gettysburg Foundation in honoring the Civil War soldiers by sponsoring a luminary, volunteering to help with the event and attending the event.

Sponsor a luminary Luminaries can be sponsored by groups or individuals for $18.63 per candle. Sponsorships may be made “in honor of” or “in memory of” a person or a group; sponsorships received by Nov. 1 will be recognized in the official program. Those interested in sponsoring a luminary need to fill out the sponsorship form www.vall ey rev ue .co m

at www.friendsofgettysburg.org/ EventsCalendar/11thAnnual RemembranceIllumination.aspx.

Volunteers needed Volunteers are needed to help set-up, greet, and clean-up the cemetery. Setup volunteers prepare for the event between 3:30 and 5:30 p.m. Greeters assist with one-hour shifts at the Taneytown Road and Baltimore Street entrances to Soldiers’ National Cemetery. Readers help announce the names of the fallen soldiers between 5:30 and 9:30 p.m. Clean-up volunteers meet at 9:30 p.m. and assist until the cemetery is cleaned up. Roughly 150 volunteer spots remain. Volunteers will be welcomed on a first-come, first-served basis; those interested should contact Events Logistics Coordinator Ann Swade at 717-339-22148 or email aswade@gettysburgfoundation.org.

erkeley Springs, a fountainhead of warm mineral waters frequented by Native Americans long before Europeans arrived in the New World, are at the heart of a mountain spa community in West Virginia’s Eastern Panhandle. First noted as Medicine Springs in 1747 on a map drawn by Thomas Jefferson’s father, the waters for many centuries have drawn visitors seeking health and relief from the stress of everyday life.

In 1776, George Washington’s family and friends drew up a plat of 134 lots, named the streets, and incorporated The Town of Bath, invoking the muses of the renowned English spa. Yet the magic of the springs prevailed, and the town and surrounding area are known by their name – Berkeley Springs.

The waters flow at a constant 74°F from the base of Warm Springs Ridge. You may still drink freely and fill your jugs at Lord Fairfax’s public tap, and wade in the ancient stone pools in the nation’s smallest state park. The town has endured cycles of notoriety, fashion, war and modern progress, but remains the Country’s First Spa, a quiet, friendly haven surrounded by West Virginia’s splendid outdoors. ß T h E VA L L EY R E V uE
