Balanced Nutrition — Tasty Choices

Nutrition is important throughout our lives but as you have gotten older, it becomes harder to prepare well balanced food in your home.  It is true that the amount of food you eat decreases as we get older but it is not true that we will lose our appetites as we get older.  Appetite is a matter of habit and if you have not been eating adequately, your body will turn off your hunger switch.  It is common for people who move to Waterford Crossing to experience an return of their appetite. Food is also more than just what we put in our mouths.  It is also the social time with friends that increase our enjoyment of eating.  It is not fun to eat alone.  At Waterford Crossing, you will have choices about where you eat and what you eat.  Your likes and dislikes will be honored.  You are also welcome to have friends and family join you for meals.
