Tomatoes
Another essential fruit (yes, tomatoes are fruits) seniors should be eating more of is the humble tomato. Because they are excellent sources of lycopene, tomatoes have the unique ability to protect against several types of cancers, including prostate cancer. Studies show that they may even guard against lung cancer.
And that’s not all… Tomatoes are also good sources of vitamin A, vitamin C, folate, magnesium, and potassium, all of which are essential when we get older. Plus, they can protect your vision, too, due to their lutein and zeaxanthin content. No matter how you choose to consume them, make room for them in your diet; you won’t regret it.

Very interesting. Luckily I eat all of these foods but I don’t drink alcohol. But when I do, I usually enjoy a glass of red wine, especially on the holidays. Also, I do need to drink more water. I think I drink plenty but I guess not.
Good list, but can you put it on one page so that I don’t have keep jumping page to page and wasting my precious, limited time?
I was lacking potasium and after taking 3 different medications perscribed that I couldn’t tolerate my doctor suggested I eat a banana a day. It was the perfect solution to my problem and certainly alot cheaper.

At 92, in great physical health and mental acuity I’m a super senior. I do all my own housekeeping, laundry, shopping, cooking, gardening and taking excellent care of my four pets. I have never eaten the flesh of another creature and that tale about wine is a myth. The LEAST amount of alcohol destroys brain cells.
I do however, eat ALL of the afore mentioned foods, sans flesh or alcohol.
I definitely need to have some more assistance
