Walnuts, I mean.
If you're looking for something to have around for your elderly loved one to snack on that requires no preparation and is easy to grab, think of going nuts.
I've got other healthy snack and meal ideas for you, but I was reading this today and thought I'd pass it along. Here's the source: Science Daily
The article states: "Years of research by scientists around the world link regular consumption of small amounts of nuts or peanut butter with decreased risk of heart disease, certain kinds of cancer, gallstones, Type 2 diabetes, and other health problems."
A serving, however, is about 7 walnuts. Not 7 dozen. Try offering 2-3 walnut halves with a mug of tea for an afternoon treat. Herbal tea, maybe with a little honey and/or lemon, will assist in hydration as well.
