We eat well but just in case we miss out on important vitamins and minerals, we are taking vitamin supplements daily now. Fish oil, multi, Vitamin D. None are at extreme levels. We don't want vitamin toxicity!
We're also eating less. We both see the wisdom of smaller portions. It feels better not to eat until we're full. Hara hachi bu is an old Japanese philosophy of eating until only 80 percent full. Dr. Daniel Amen, author of "Change your brain, change you life" says research shows that eating 30 percent less increases longevity and enhances brain health.
We're also focusing mainly on whole foods. Nuts, greens, fresh fruit.
We walk to stay active. My daughter walks all the dogs with my husband at night. I walk during the day but I haven't since I got out of the hospital.
