Hi, I am Jyothi Chabria. In this segment we will be talking about vital nutrients for

women over 60. Most women by the time they are reaching 60, they are almost into menopause

and the commonly associated symptoms that we see are joint pains and they have lot of

nerve weakness, they are not able to see very well. That's all part of aging which is very

natural phenomenon. But, in order to support nutrition and help them feel better, we would

definitely recommend anti-oxidants which give them a basically cover to their heart also,

heart issues. And there are lot of people at that age who have lifestyle disorders like

diabetes or heart problems, so, we would recommend a low fat and a reasonably maybe a I would

think 1500 calorie per day for a person who is above 60. There are many times that people

at 60 have, are using dentures or they lost their teeth. So we just need to sustain the

consistency of food as in giving them a semi solid diet basically, but what we need to

highlight here are things like calcium and D3 because their bones are become brittle.

So, things like again foxtail millet or milk. We recommend about 3 glasses of milk per day

for people at 60. We recommend them to have nutritional food supplements which will include

lots of things like drumstick leaves, carrots and beans and a combination of lot of nuts

also like walnut is very rich in vitamin E and wheatgerm and wheat grass are rich in

vitamin E. So they are good combination of like aloe vera or wheat grass extract would

really help them feel better because it supplies anti oxidants that they need at that age.

And the other thing is, they always feel tired because obviously their energy levels are

not too high, so we recommend them to have probably a fix of dry fruits, as in powder

form they could probably mix into milk and have it. It increases the nutrition value

of milk, per se.
