Eating a healthy nutritious diet goes a long way in keeping you fit and active.  As Baby Boomers when we feel well, we want to be active and out doing things.   Vitamins are necessary to maintain body strength and vitality.  Most physicians and health sites advocate the use of a daily multi-vitamin just to make sure that all the nutritional bases are covered.  As we tend to eat too much processed food, which may have fewer vitamins, a one-a-day dose can help.  Dietingvoice, a new presence on the Internet also recommends Vitamin C.

Dietingvoice especially advises the use of vitamins in moderation, as too much can be toxic.  The site also has helpful tips on low calorie diets, bringing the sad news that a pound of fat equals 3,500 calories, so that’s the amount you must cut from daily consumption to lose a pound!  The site also says that the words balanced and diet should go together, in a healthful way. Articles on body mass index and basal metabolic rate also inform Silver Foxes as we work to maintain our youthful figures!  Exercise and eat right to maintain your health!
