According to recent government figures, almost 40% of people in the UK over 65 have a limiting long-term health condition such as diabetes or heart disease. It's quite a startling figure. It's also one we can reduce significantly if we all take better care of ourselves when we are younger.
This is because many of these conditions link back to unhealthy lifestyle choices. These include smoking, drinking too much alcohol, and eating foods high in fats and sugars.
Maintaining a healthy diet is, therefore, key to staying fit and healthy for longer. The key to a healthy diet is ensuring you get the right vitamins, minerals, and essential nutrients, whether that's in the food you eat or the supplements you take. In fact, supplements should be on everyone's shopping list, along with a good mix of fruits, vegetables, whole foods, and quality proteins. Because, while they might seem like a luxury when money is tight, the long-term benefits to your health are well worth the investment.
