🔸 Mid-Morning Energy Boost for Seniors!

Steamed Banana and Boiled Egg

 As we age, maintaining steady energy levels is important. Seniors often need a small, nutritious meal between breakfast and lunch to stay active and avoid fatigue. A perfect mid-morning snack around 11 AM is a simple yet effective combination—boiled egg and boiled banana.

Why This Combo Works?

🥚 Boiled Egg – A rich source of protein, healthy fats, and essential vitamins, it helps in muscle strength and overall well-being.

🍌 Boiled Banana – Packed with natural sugars, fiber, and potassium, it provides sustained energy without causing spikes in blood sugar.

This duo is easy to digest, nourishing, and perfect for seniors who need a light yet fulfilling snack.
