In my experience many senior have dietary deficiency.
So I share the following information with my patients.
Based on study of 142,000 people over 60 years of age; those who eat 3-5 servings of vegetables and fruits are 39% less likely to break a hip compared to those who ate 1 servings or less.
According to research, dementia increase risk of hip fracture by 200%; according to a study, seniors who consume more than 1.2 servings of vegetables test 11 years younger on cognitive testing than those who eat no vegetables.
