What exercises help to increase muscle tone as we age?

I am learning to eat more carbs…corn is so/so for fat and avocados are out. Good idea to learn about fruits and veggies, high calorie/fiber. When I started cutting fat I automatically cut protein that went along with it. The protein broth is 100 calories and 20 grams of protein without sugar or fat. Protein supplements have too much fat in general so I avoid the rest. My body has a problem absorbing fat, at least at the present time. I pretty much stick to boneless chicken breasts, white fish and beans as staples. Egg whites are a good snack. I blend up chickpeas with seasoning but they bother me unless I make sure to have enough other non-fat other foods with them. I have been sticking to only individual foods that, for the most part do not exceed 7-8% fat individually. This way everything stocked in our kitchen is “safe”. Chicken, for example has more so I just have to be aware of quantity and the nutrition of what I am eating at the same time.

avocado is the best you can eat, that gives you an HDL high which is good
