These unhealthy habits can be especially problematic if you’re over 50. 1. Don’t take health advice from inexperienced people. 2. Don’t be too quick to accept a diagnosis. 3. Avoid solutions that create more problems. 4. Avoid excessive stress. The most important nutrient for people over 50 is vitamin D. Vitamin D affects 10% of your genes. You need at least 10,000 IU or more of vitamin D to have a therapeutic effect. Doctors worldwide use vitamin D3 for many health problems, including autoimmune diseases, eye problems, and fibroids. Magnesium, zinc, and vitamin D work together in a synergistic way. Magnesium is vital for heart health and energy. Avoid calcium and iron supplements as you age. It is very difficult to remove excess iron from the body. There is no need to avoid salt! Choose sea salt and make sure you get plenty of potassium. Sodium deficiency can lead to increased cortisol levels, which can affect sleep. Cholesterol is a basic building block of sex hormones, so you should get enough after menopause. Cholesterol is essential for our brain, bile salts, and other hormones. Butter, eggs, dairy, and shellfish are the best dietary sources of cholesterol. Focus on eliminating carbohydrates from your diet and prioritizing quality protein. Grass-fed beef or lamb is the best source of protein. Frequent meals stimulate insulin, which is the root cause of many chronic diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and fatty liver. Autoimmune diseases are associated with low vitamin D and microbes, viruses, and other pathogens that downregulate the vitamin D receptor. After severe stress or shock, your immune system becomes suppressed, leaving you vulnerable to autoimmune disease. Understanding the importance of the microbiome as an organ is vital, especially if you are over the age of 50. Your microbes do not always bounce back when you take an antibiotic. Gut health supports immune function, neurotransmitter production, mood, cognitive function, digestion, nutrient production, sleep, and even protects us against cancer.
