Eat a handful of walnuts or almonds a day that are raw or dry roasted without added salt or butter or oil
Instead of focusing only on nuts you may want to consider the following guideline
As the body ages so do your nutritional needs. Every system is affected as you grow older, you lose muscle and bone mass, become less active, your sense of smell and taste starts fading, and you nutrient dense calories.
