Your Changing Nutrition Needs

Did you know that, as you age, your nutritional needs change?

You have different nutritional needs than you did 20, 10, or even 5 years ago! But there are good choices you can start making today to help your body stay at its best.

Metabolism Matters
The metabolism naturally slows down with age and you start to burn fewer calories. That means there may be a need to decrease your calorie intake and increase your physical activity. Making smart, nutritious choices can help.

Fluid Facts
Fluid is important as you age, but many older adults may not drink enough each day. It’s key to include many sources of fluids every day into your diet.

Muscle Maintenance
Every 10 years, you could be losing 8% of your muscle mass. Ensure® Enlive® has NutriVigor, the amino acid metabolite HMB, and protein to help rebuild muscle and strength.*
