What Is Aging?

Not only does the signs of aging include wrinkles, it also includes memory loss brain function decrease and the increasing risk of chronic diseases
What is healthy aging? Currently it's defined as living a longer, healthier life. A healthy diet will help to prevent many age related chronic diseases.


Taking care of yourself by adopting a healthy lifestyle that includes, physical activity, adequate rest, avoiding tobacco, and a diet full of healthy foods and

beverages will be your best defense against aging improperly.


What you eat is critical to slow the onset of age and age related diseases, start now and you will reap the benefits sooner that later. "noted by medical professionals for the American Dietic Association"


Antioxidants and Inflammation

Phytonutrients, contained in some foods and beverages, believed by some to have the capability of unlocking the key to longevity. Members of the antioxidant family, Phytonutrients, consumes "free radicals" -- oxygen molecules that play a role in the onset of illnesses such as

heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, and Alzheimer's disease."


As we age, we become more susceptible to the long-term effects of oxidative stress (a condition where the body basically has too many free radicals) and

inflammation on the cellular level. The theory is that antioxidants and other age-defying compounds help cells ward off damage from free radicals and

minimize the impact of aging.

Beyond antioxidants, some other compounds in foods can affect aging. They can be classified according to their impact on inflammation at the cellular

level, experts say.

"All foods fit into three categories: pro-inflammatory, neutral, or anti-inflammatory," says dermatologist and best-selling author, Nicholas Perricone, MD.

Perricone says you can help to slow aging at the cellular level by choosing foods that are anti-inflammatory and rich in antioxidants.

"Age-related changes may be reversed by consuming foods and beverages that are rich in a variety of compounds, including antioxidants, and are

anti-inflammatory, such as cold-water fish and richly colored fruits and vegetables," he says.

On the other hand, foods classified as pro-inflammatory can accelerate aging, Perricone says.

If "we eat large amounts of saturated or trans fatty acids, sugars, and starches, insulin levels surge and trigger an anti-inflammatory response and

accelerate the aging process," says Perricone.

While the benefits to eating healthy are many, Perricone notes that diet is certainly not the only factor that affects the aging process.

"Stress, hormones, ultraviolet light, and a weakened immune system also contribute to aging," he says.

Still, making smart lifestyle choices are within your control, and are among the best things you can do to help prevent disease and retard aging.
