Healthy Eating for Healthy Ageing

Eating a well-balanced diet is an important part of staying healthy as you age. It can help you maintain a healthy weight, stay energised, and get the nutrients you need. It also lowers your risk of developing chronic health conditions, such as heart disease and diabetes.

The food we eat provides not just energy, but essential vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that all contribute to our wellbeing in their own unique and crucial ways.

Today, many people are time poor with little time to prepare nourishing home-cooked meals, and many of us are confused about what to eat due to conflicting advice about nutrition and healthy eating. Sometimes cooking a nutritious home prepared meal for one can seem like all too much effort. Activate Foods caters to all groups of people including seniors, as we have a strong passion for creating nourishing and delicious meals.

Why Activate Foods is a fantastic solution for seniors and carers:

Dietitian approved

Did you know that all our meals are dietitian approved? 

Many convenience meals options available these days are high in processed carbohydrates, sugar, salt, food additives and preservatives, and are lacking in flavour and nutrition. Activate Foods readymade meals are based on wholefoods including fresh locally sourced vegetables, grass-fed meat, and ancient grains such as quinoa and brown rice. 

Activate Foods meals are not only nutritionally balanced, but they are free from added sugars, low in saturated fat, high in protein and fibre and are bursting with flavour. There are also numerous options to cater for varying nutritional requirements including vegetarian and gluten-free options and the menu is updated weekly with a range of fresh and frozen meal options. Activate Foods takes the worry and stress away and provides a wide range of wholesome, home-cooked meals that show case natural flavours at an affordable price. That’s why Activate Foods gets our tick of approval!
