Image
When someone you love begins to age, their needs shift quietly, subtly, and deeply. At first, it's the small things. A little fatigue here, a forgotten meal there. But behind these changes, nutrition plays a powerful role. Senior care services today understand this well, and that’s why personalised nutrition plans are becoming a game-changer for healthy ageing.   Seniors need more than just "eating right" They require a well-structured plan that includes medical history, lifestyle, and personal preferences. Whether it’s a low-sodium diet for heart health, high-protein meals to maintain muscle mass, or diabetic-friendly meal plans, a personalised approach makes all the difference. And this isn’t just a trend; it’s a thoughtful shift in how we care for ageing loved ones. Why Do Seniors Need Personalised Nutrition?

  A Comforting Companion for Golden Years   When we think of senior care services , we often picture well-balanced meals, medical support, and peaceful environments.

Image
As seniors age, our sleep patterns naturally change. But that doesn’t mean poor sleep should be ignored or accepted as “just part of getting older.” Good sleep is just as important for seniors as for anyone else. Quality rest helps support memory, mood, immune health, and energy throughout the day.   Many senior care services, including Athulya Senior Care , understand that healthy sleep is key to overall well-being. So, let’s explore how sleep changes with age and what seniors can do to enjoy better rest every night. How Does Sleep Change with Age? Falling asleep earlier, waking up more often at night, or needing a nap during the day may be experienced. These common changes can be caused by: ●        A shift in the body’s natural sleep clock ●        Lower levels of melatonin, the hormone that helps us sleep ●        Health conditions like arthritis, heart disease, or incontinen...
