Therefore, in order to meet the problem of nutrition having a great influence on their health and prolonging we should make the nutrition plan as such: 1.

They also often have contstipation by diminishing of their mucous secretion. Accordingly they should take enough the fruit, vegetable and seaweeds helping their liquid operation and their excretive operation of motions smoothly, and they also take water and juice. 5. The meat is good for the elderly in order to take the animal protein of good quality, but the excessive intake is rather bad to them. The fish is good for them on account it has much unsaturated fatty acid. It is good for their hearth to eat an egg, an half cake of bean-curd and an half fish a day. 6. It is good for the elderly to take the liver, the treasure of all kinds of nurishment, a week, by using cooking of escaping the small of liver. 7. We should change the recognition that milk is good for only children. It is good food for the health of woman and the elderly as well as that of grown-up.
