Hydration and Nutrition during Winter: We do it the Right Way @ John B. Parsons!

Why It Matters:
Cold weather can reduce thirst cues, making dehydration a hidden risk for older adults. Additionally, limited outdoor activity and seasonal changes can impact appetite and nutrient intake.

Top Hydration Tips (NIA Guidance)

Drink fluids regularly even if you don’t feel thirsty. Aim for water, herbal teas, or low-sodium broths.

Limit dehydrating beverages like sugary drinks and excessive caffeine.

Include water-rich foods such as soups, stews, fruits (oranges, berries), and vegetables.

Monitor medications that may increase dehydration risk (diuretics, certain blood pressure meds).

Winter Nutrition Tips

Prioritize protein for muscle strength: lean meats, eggs, beans, and dairy.

Add vitamin-rich produce: dark leafy greens, carrots, squash, and citrus fruits for immune support.

Choose whole grains for sustained energy and fiber.

Fortify with vitamin D: fatty fish, fortified dairy, or supplements (consult your doctor).

Plan warm, balanced meals to maintain body temperature and comfort.
