Advice on aging and diet from Sweden

-

 



Potatoes

Rye Krisp bread: eaten with butter or cheese
RantWoman likes Rye Krisp bread but not daily.

Eggs

Plain Kefir or yogurt

Yellow split peas
served alongside thin pancakes with jam
stir in mustard?
(or make dal with south Asian spices)

green cabbage
winter cabbage salad

frozen blueberries
hot blueberry soup?

beets
The can is already cooked
pickled beats

canned sardines
Ooh. sardines with Krisp bread sounds GOOD

frozen whitefish

old fashioned oats


RantWoman eats LOTS of the things on this list but gets tired of eating the same few things. 


RantWoman likes beets but not a steady diet. RantWoman also likes some different ways to make beet salad: boiled or roasted grated up with garlic, walnuts and a bit of mayo or roasted, chopped, mixed with carrots, jicama, a splash of rice vinegar with wasabi added.
Too much spice for Swedes?

Also, what? No legumes besides yellow splits?

The channel digests scientific studies, explains the physiological processes and offers clear reasonable steps to address the key points, in this case more detail about the science of postmenopausal women eating prunes And yes, RantWoman is a bit of a word nerd and really appreciates digestible use of medical terminology. Not a doctor but a really professional content curator. Another hot tip for #Blind and Low-vision readers: there are fairly simple visuals, line drawings mainly. RantWoman glanced at the visuals occasionally but got the content just fine without needed to spend eyeball energy. RantWoman has set a new video to post every week but for heaven sake, subscribe yourself and pass the advice along to anyone it seems applicable. Since RantWoman is posting during #WeekWithoutDriving, this advice is exactly on point for people who need to keep walking and must maintain bone health to do it.
