EAT YOUR VEGETABLES
A healthy diet is the keystone to a longer and healthier life. A primarily plant-based diet helps reduce cancer and heart disease and doesn’t have to be expensive, especially with vegetables grown at home. Becoming a vegetable gardener promotes many of the good behaviors associated with aging well: It gets people engaged and focused, outside, and fed in a healthy way. A balcony or deck will work fine, as many veggies can be grown in containers. Or join a community garden which is a good way to find a new social circle.
