Can You Add Years To Your Life By Eating Smarter?

Can You Add Years To Your Life By Eating Smarter?

Nobody likes getting older. Let’s rephrase that. Nobody likes to feel like an old person, who can’t do the same things he/she used to do. Believe it or not, your diet actually plays a huge role in how you age. Don’t wait until the last minute to start adding fibrous fruits and veggies to your diet, and don’t shy away from healthy foods. Going the “easier” route to eat fast or junk food will only take a toll on the body in the long run.

Certain foods can actually slow the effects Father Time. There is actually a compound in fresh fruits and vegetables, which can boost your metabolism and improve your energy. This anti-aging compound is called nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN). The body already produces this compound, but having more of it in your diet can improve bodily functions. NMN production decreases as we age, so it is best to eat fruits and vegetables that have this compound early on.

When it comes to eating anti-aging foods, don’t expect an overnight transformation. It is unfeasible to look twenty years younger after eating a few avocados. That’s not how the game goes, unfortunately. Eating healthy foods ultimately helps the body from the inside out. If your insides are nourished and functioning optimally, you have a better chance of warding off illnesses, which can help you live longer.

For you anti-aging diet, you should definitely include the following foods.

Olive Oil

Olive oil is one of the best oils you can use. Research studies have shown that olive oil has cancer-lowering properties, and it helps fight back against heart disease. It is rich in antioxidants and has amazing polyphenols, which help prevent age-related diseases.

B-Vitamin Foods

B-vitamins are crucial for maintaining energy levels. Vitamin B3, niacin, is actually a derivative NMN, which is that special anti-aging compound found in foods. Foods that are rich in B-vitamins include mushrooms, fresh green tea, nuts, and seeds.

Blueberries

Blueberries are a pretty awesome superfood. They are rich in antioxidants and compounds that help lower inflammation and decrease oxidative stress, which can lead to any number of age-related ailments.

Omega-3 Rich Foods

Omega-3s are the keys…to a longer and healthier life. Aging comes with inflammation, and omega-3 rich foods help combat that issue. The best omega-3 foods to eat include almonds, avocados, olive oil, and sprouted nuts and seeds.

Lastly, studies show that eating a Mediterranean diet can be extremely beneficial for living a longer life. This diet, which consists of fresh fruits and vegetables, olive oil, nuts, beans, and healthy grains can greatly benefit the health of your brain.
