Balanced Care Method™ Unlocks the Secrets to Longer Life Spans Through a Healthy Diet
(Palo Alto, CA – November 9, 2010) Home Care Assistance (www.homecareassistance.com), the premier live-in senior care agency based out in Palo Alto, CA, recently released its proprietary caregiver training program: the Balanced Care Method™. Created by Dr. James H. Johnson, Co-Founder of Home Care Assistance and a geriatric PhD with extensive senior care experience, the manual was designed to promote healthier and longer life spans among people of all ages.The Balanced Care Method™ has been derived from Okinawa, Japan, a region that is home to some of the longest lifespans in the world. Okinawan elders often live to 100 and beyond; they are active, fit, and have startlingly low cases of cancer, heart attacks, strokes, and diabetes. While there are a multitude of factors that contribute to their incredible health, it’s impossible to deny that their food choices play a huge role. Their typical low-calorie, high-fiber diet exceeds standards set by the U.S. National Cancer Institute and helps protect them against many disease and ailments common among seniors.
Laurie Steinberg, a Registered Dietician at Stanford School of Medicine and owner of Private Practice on Nutrition Counseling and Consulting, reviewed the Balanced Care Method™ eating program and gave her extremely positive assessment: “I work frequently with older adults. Many need help with activities of daily living, especially meal preparation, so I am excited to learn about the Balanced Care Method™ for caregivers,” she said. “The information in the training manual about a healthy diet reflects the latest research, and the fact that it is based on the habits of the long-lived elders of Okinawa is very inspiring.”
The Balanced Care Method™ promotes a varied diet rich in vegetables and fruits, whole grains and lean proteins, and low in saturated fats, refined sugars, processed foods, and alcohol. It also promotes moderate, low-calorie eating through smart, healthy meal choices. Senior caregivers are provided with detailed examples of appropriate foods that their clients should enjoy daily, limit and avoid altogether.
“I’d feel comfortable recommending this eating plan to anyone, and I am glad to know about the program so that I can recommend it to my clients who need help at home,” concludes Steinberg.
The Balanced Care Method™ is yet another element that distinguishes Home Care Assistance from other senior care agencies. Their constantly innovative and progressive approach makes them the premier live-in specialists in North America.
