Impaired taste or smell can have a profound effect on a person’s overall diet quality. Loss of either of these senses has been discussed more often as of late given that both can be side effects of COVID-19. To improve nutritional intake when experiencing impaired senses, start by setting up an enjoyable dining experience. Focusing on other aspects of meals, such as atmosphere and dining companions, aids in overall meal satisfaction. Choosing balanced meals that include proteins, starches, and produce ensures the meal is healthy and interesting. The varied food groups can provide textures that make the meal generally more pleasurable. Be sure to use lemon juice, vinegar, and spices to boost flavor. Excessive salt and sugar may decrease the healthfulness of meals so use these additions sparingly. While we can offer some tips on maximizing enjoyment of meals with altered taste or smell, it is always important that you visit your physician should you experience any such changes.

Beans are delicious, nutritious, and economical. Research has shown that eating beans can improve body weight optimal to the individual and prevent chronic disease.

Substituting in beans for your typical meat of choice in tacos, quesadillas, or burgers are also relatively quick and easy options. If you have a food processor, beans make wonderful spreads like hummus.

| Reaping the benefits of yoga does not require an extensive amount of time. Because yoga enhances the mind body connection by increasing strength, flexibility, and body awareness even short amounts of time yield positive results. In addition, the accessibility of yoga instruction has increased with readily available pre-recorded and live online classes. Ace Fitness offers a foundational poses routine that can be completed in ten minutes. You Tube boasts many free yoga channels, such as Yoga with Adrienne, who offers an under ten minute “Get the Juices Flowing” sequence. Mindful Minutes boasts a five-minute kids sequence that will keep kids’ attention as you introduce yoga into your home. As you access online information it may still be necessary to screen ads and commercials. |
