Consider the following case study: a woman 83 years old, mildly obese, mildly depressed, inactive, disinterested in life, elevated cholesterol, high blood pressure, and prediabetes. What health, activity, and nutrition changes would you recommend for her?
Homework Answers
She show walk every morning atleast 3 km, and should involve in some physical activity. I will recommend her to do yoga, and some meditation to reduce some weight and mental stress. She has to take a healthy balanced diet to reduce the cholesterol and fat level. As she is diabetic also, so she has to take low carbohydrate food.
She has to include, more green vegetables and fruits in her diet. High fiber diet will be good for her. She has to drink plenty of water and water based fluid. As she has hypertension, so she has to reduce the salt in her diet.
