ADAPTING TO CHANGES

The seniors were taught the importance of the good dish, which specifies portions for various food types, in addition to using less sugar and salt.

The elderly may want to stay to a meal they’ve been using for ages, but they can be open to change, according to Ms. Ong Boon Cheng, associate manager at Goodlife Makan, which is operated by Montfort Care, a social service organization.

Every grandma uses a certain brand of olive oil and oyster sauce to make their ideal sesame chicken, according to her, but through education they can be very open to changing, she said. &nbsp,

The chef have made a few changes to soften fried grain, such as using grapes instead of sugar. &nbsp,

Madam Lin Yan Qing, 84, a volunteer who serves as a cook for her brother elderly at the neighborhood home, described how challenging it is to keep the food both delicious and healthier.

Nevertheless, she understands the need to increase foods. &nbsp,

” We are older and we have to take care of ourselves. Health is the most crucial factor. Then, nothing things”, she said.
