Red meat may increase your risk of cancer, while cheese and pickles may increase your risk of hypertension. Elderly people need to limit these foods. In this respect “RIAMO” said endocrinologist, candidate of medical sciences Oksana Mikhaleva, nutritionist at SM-Clinic.
It is recommended that older people consume red meat (especially fatty meat) no more than once a month due to its high cholesterol content and its association with an increased risk of bowel cancer in people over 50 years of age. Elderly people also need to be careful with high-fat dairy products.
“It’s mostly about the cheese. Cheese is a very healthy product when consumed in moderation, not exceeding 20-30 g per day. It is a good source of calcium for the elderly. However, due to its high salt and cholesterol content, if consumed in large amounts, it will increase the risk of hypertension, atherosclerosis and decreased kidney function,” Mikhaleva said.
Baked goods made from premium flour can also be harmful to older people.
White bread, sweets, chocolate and industrial baked goods should also be limited as they increase the risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes when consumed excessively.
Pickles can damage the kidneys and increase blood pressure. It is better to avoid them, and you can also use special low-sodium salt sold in pharmacies.
