Tips for Seniors on Controlling Your Cholesterol

November 16, 2022 by MorningStar Senior Living in Memory Care

High cholesterol usually shows no symptoms and can be referred to as a silent killer. A heart-healthy diet is essential for optimal senior living.

MorningStar Senior Living offers simple and tasty changes in their menus to make a difference in seniors cholesterol levels and overall health.

Doctors explain that there are two types of cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, considered the “bad” cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein, known as “good” cholesterol. When you ingest foods that contain high in fat, deposits develop in your blood vessels. When these deposits grow, they can block blood flow to your arteries, sometimes causing a heart attack or stroke. A heart-healthy diet in senior living is essential. MorningStar’s culinary team is intentional

about leveraging the healing power of that special class known as Super Foods. These foods have been shown to contribute directly to overall health. 

Super Foods can be described as foods with many health benefits, such as foods that help improve cardiovascular and heart health. MorningStar is a senior living community that offers a full menu of heart healthy foods. Kale, chard, spinach, are great for heart health and are packed with Vitamin B, which even shows evidence of slowing dementia.
