Well , say we dont know in particular what illnesses they might be encountering … do you still keep certain pointers in mind?

For example, when I know someone old is in the guest list , I ensure the following:

• Add one or two dishes that have thin gravy in them. So they can dip their roti nicely and have to chew less
• Thin gravy lessens the spices for them and its easier for them to digest
• I particularly make food with lesser oil , more water based
• For the grilled stuff and kababs , I cover the pot and **soften **them up , again so its easier to eat and digest later on…

Things like these … any additions to my list?

This is precisely what my Mom does. She also adds soft fruits for dessert so the elderly need not worry about sugar etc
