5 Tips on Maintaining Good Health for Men 55 and Older

1/22/2019

0 Comments

​For a lot of men over 50, their independence is the main factor in wanting to stay active and healthy. They said they still want to be able to travel and spend time with their families. And you can't do that if you are always laid up in bed or if you have trouble walking after a few miles.
 
Follow these tips if you want to maintain your good health and enjoy your retirement years:
  1. Protect Your Bones
    Osteoporosis is a disease that doesn't discriminate between sexes. Men also lose bone mass after 50. If you're already flirting with that age, adding probiotics and supplemental calcium in your diet is a good idea. Some studies have indicated that probiotics aids in digestive health and could help with osteoporosis. Get some of those good bacteria with fermented foods and dairy products with probiotic enzymes.   

  2. Cut Back on Salt
    Too much salt is detrimental in every age. It is particularly true for older males, as excessive sodium levels and too little potassium leads to high blood pressure. It can result in heart disease. Reduce the odds of that happening by cutting back on foods with too much salt, like processed foods, cheese, and bread. Eat more leafy green vegetables and high-potassium foods like bananas.

  3. Keep Your Mind Sharp
    Keep your wits about you with a healthy diet and exercise, both physical and mental. Studies have shown how vital eating healthy fats is in lower the risk of Alzheimer's disease. Exercising both your body and mind will also help. So, don't stop learning new things just because you're retiring.

  4. Drink More Water; Your Prostate Will Thank You
    A lot of men prefer soda to water. However, research indicates that sugary drinks could be a factor in over 180,000 deaths a year. Soda also causes weight gain in men and increases their risk of developing diabetes and prostate cancer. So, put down the soda bottle and drink more water instead. You can add apples, red grapes, turmeric or slices of lemon to water to give it a little flavor.

  5. Avoid Trans Fat for a Better Sex Life
    Too much trans-fat can have a detrimental effect on your sex life. These fats can clog arteries and increase bad cholesterol levels, leading to erectile dysfunction. To enjoy a healthy love life, cut down on refined sugars and trans-fat. Boost your performance with protein and healthy fats.
 
You can't stop aging, but you can age gracefully with exercise and a healthy diet. A reliable insurance policy will also go a long way in protecting you and ensuring you continue to enjoy life. At Insurance Services of the West, we aim to make our client's life easier with policies that are tailored to their needs.
