Foods to Stay Away From After Age 60

Shellfish

Shellfish is a little more rogue, as it’s not really the type of food that most of us consume every day. It’s quite pricey and isn’t very convenient, especially if you’re miles away from water. However, if you’ve got a taste for seafood and like to treat yourself, shellfish is one to be cautious of. Shellfish includes the likes of shrimp, crab, and lobster, as well as mussels and oysters.

All of these can be really high in cholesterol and sodium. In addition, they pose the risk of foodborne illnesses. If you want shellfish, go to restaurants you trust and consume in moderation.
