At Health Guard Inc., we help older adults improve their nutrition and reduce the risk of poor health outcomes with nutritional counseling and hot, nutritious meals.
Malnutrition is one of the most common issues in the senior population. It can happen for many reasons, including a weak or limited diet, tooth loss, decreased appetite, lack of transportation, living alone and medicine side effects.
Older adults also have a greater need for certain nutrients, which makes proper nutrition necessary for good health. With elderly nutrition therapy, we help with meal plans and simple recipes that help seniors reach their nutrient needs. Seniors can benefit from increased energy, alertness and immunity.
Our program is designed for seniors’ special needs. We break everything down into small, manageable steps that make healthy living a reality, so seniors can prevent malnutrition and stay active and healthy.
