Foods to Stay Away From After Age 60
Processed Meat
Of course, any breakfast feels incomplete without the likes of bacon and sausages. However, dietitians recommend that we stay away from these sorts of processed meats, especially once we hit 60. Much like deli meat, these meats will also contain high levels of sodium, unhealthy fats, and preservatives. Unfortunately, this increases the risk of hypertension, heart disease, and certain cancers. The convenience and taste of these meats keeps us coming back for more, but we should be doing the opposite.
In addition, the nitrates used when processing meat contribute to health issues. All in all, it’s best to stay far away.
