At age 65, your metabolism begins to slow down and your body becomes more selective
when turning food into energy - which means that it is crucial that the first thing you eat
during the day is right.

Start off with an omelet   eggs are high in protein, which helps your muscles not
deteriorate as quickly.

It also contains choline that stimulates your brain.

Combined with oats, it gives you both steady release of glucose and prebiotic fiber
needed to maintain a proper intestinal flora and function.

This single dish can fuel your body for 4-5 hours at least.

Bananas with almond butter are also a perfect start to a day.

Bananas provide you with plenty of potassium, that is important for heart's proper
functioning and muscle contractions.

At the same time, healthy fats found in almond butter make sure that the blood sugar
levels do not drop quickly.

The idea of eating salmon or sardines may seem ridiculous   but fatty acids they contain
fight inflammation, which leads to fatigue and tiredness early in the morning   especially
after 65.

The final component is Greek yogurt with berries.

The probiotics in the yogurt will help ensure proper gut absorption, which diminishes
with age, and without which all the energy from other foods cannot be absorbed.

In conclusion, when over 65 years old, energy is no longer about counting calories.

Rather, it is about proteins, fats, and foods that work in favor of bodily systems that can
turn food into energy.
