3 Tips to Make Healthy Choices by Reading the Nutrition Fact Label

When thinking about nutrition, it is important to always read the nutrition fact label. Here are 3 tips to make healthy choices by reading the label, provided by the FDA website.

1. Check the Servings. The nutrition information listed on the label is usually based on one serving of the food. When comparing calories and nutrients in different foods, check the serving size to make a correct comparison.And remember, it is common for a food package or beverage to have more than one serving.
2. Know Your Calorie Needs. 2,000 calories a day is used as a general guide for nutrition advice. However, your calorie needs may be higher or lower and depend on your age, s*x, height, weight, and the amount of physical activity you get each day. Talk to your healthcare provider about your calorie and nutrition needs, as you age. Visit www.mY,JJlate.gov/mY.glate-glan and talk to your healthcare provider to see what calorie range is right for you.
3. Use% Daily Value as a Guide. The %DV can help you look for foods to decide which is the better choice for you. Older adults should more often look for foods with a higher %DV of dietary fiber, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium. Older adults should also more often look for foods with a lower %DV of saturated fat, sodium, and added sugars. Talk to your healthcare provider about which nutrients you should track closely for your overall health.

💰What a difference a quarter makes! 💰
❓Did you know...if everyone who enjoys a meal at a senior center contributed just ONE extra quarter, it could help raise an average of $1,400 a year for their local senior center?
🍽These donations help us provide services like: meals, recreation, Medicare counseling, fitness, family caregiver services, care management, and more!
Senior centers rely on the local community's donations towards meals and services for about one-third of our revenue.
🎉Your donations are appreciated and a small donation makes a big difference!🎉

💗 As Breast Cancer Awareness Month comes to a close, we’re celebrating hope, strength and the more than 4 million breast cancer survivors living in the United States.

Behind that number are millions of individual stories — of courage, resilience, support and the people who stood beside them along the way.

At Care Connection for Aging Services, we believe every stage of life matters. This month, and every month, we honor those who have faced breast cancer, remember those we have lost, and celebrate the survivors who continue to inspire us.

Let’s keep the conversation going beyond October. 💗
