After 50, several changes occur in your body that can affect your health, such as:

• Decreased stomach acid production

• Reduced gut microbiome diversity

• Anabolic resistance

• Increased inflammation

Wild salmon and sardines are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, including EPA and DHA, which help reduce inflammation and support brain health and cognitive function. These benefits become especially important as you age.

Sauerkraut and kefir help support gut microbiome health and diversity as you age. Fermented foods can also help reduce inflammatory markers. Look for fermented foods in the refrigerated section to get the most benefits.

Bone broth is a good source of collagen, which is critical for healthy aging. Collagen supports connective tissues, skin health, cardiovascular health, and more.
