7 Things Doctors Wish Adults Would Do Daily

NO MEDITATION? –

Nov. 23, 2024  – That said, there are daily habits and practices that older adults can engage in to help ease some of the aches and pains that come with aging. We spoke with a number of doctors across different specialties about things they wish older adults would do daily ― and many are easier than you think.

“Making these changes can be as simple as choosing healthy meals and snacks that can help prevent heart disease, including fresh fruits and vegetables, foods high in fiber and low in unhealthy fats, and also limiting your intake of salt and sugar,” said Dr. Nadim Geloo, senior director of medical affairs at Abbott’s structural heart business. “It may be difficult to change overnight, so I recommend changing one aspect of your diet at a time with a medium-term goal to eliminate harmful foods.”
