Gut and Intestinal Problems on Senior Health

Food consumption is the people’s first source of nourishment. Through healthy meal preparation and eating habits, we can get the daily amount of nutrition we need to sustain energy, strength, mental sharpness, focus, and others. But when an aging person develops issues on digestion and gastrointestinal tract due to aging, it can affect the breaking down of food to necessary nutrients.

Here are some examples of intestinal and digestive problems seniors under personal care in California may experience as they grow older:

• Dysphagia or swallowing difficulties
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome
• Constipation
• Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease or GERD
• Colorectal Cancer

As a home care agency in Monterey, California, we care for the welfare of the elderly. That is why we suggest taking action immediately when you start to have symptoms of these types of intestinal issues. Visit your doctor as soon as you can.
