Anti-Aging Diet Care

By Marianna Pells | August 14, 2007

Many anti-aging products nowadays guarantee customers with favorable effects. However, what these customers don’t know is that if they are to maximize the effects of these anti aging diet care methods, they must do their share of limiting themselves to eating healthy foods, lowering calories, and increasing their fluid intake.

Reducing calorie intake is one of the best way to start looking young and feeling young. Lowering your intake of calories can help reduce health risks and extend life expectancy. Studies show that limiting calorie intake can prevent certain ailments and diseases which are mostly associated with physical maturity.

Statistics have shown that individuals in their 50’s who practiced lesser calorie intake had blood pressures of a 10-year-old. Other studies show that in rodents and primates, those that were on restrictive diets lived longer than their maximum life spans.

Furthermore, the Hormesis Hypothesis of calorie restriction suggests that controlled calorie intake lowers stress levels that cause aging. It explains that animals are able to live longer because calorie restriction induces a defense mechanism that helps them survive.

Other than reducing calorie intake, one effective way of aiding any anti-aging diet care method is having good health food diet. A healthy food diet should include a well-balanced diet and a daily or regular dose of fruits and vegetables as these contain anti-aging properties. Below are also some of the more examples of food that will aid you in your fight against aging:

Berries – berries are good sources of flavanoids and antioxidants. These two anti-aging properties help prevent free radicals from attacking and damaging your cells, thus, delaying aging.

Avocados – Avocados contain potassium that regulates high blood pressure. It also contains monounsaturated fat which can help lower the bad cholesterol in your body as well as Vitamin E which is necessary in replacing dead skin cells.

Nuts – Nuts contain high levels of protein and minerals that strengthens the body’s immune system. It also helps repair damaged body cells, making it an excellent diet for those on an anti-aging diet care.

Garlic – Garlics are known to reduce risks of heart failures.

Cruciferous vegetables – Broccoli, radish and cauliflower are just some examples of these cruciferous vegetables which help prevent cancer diseases.

One of the more common health practice that help delay aging and strengthens one’s immune system is the hydrotherapy or drinking lots of fluids, especially water. Since dehydration causes stress-induced damages on our body’s cells, replenishing our body adequately with the water it needs can effectively help flush out wastes and toxins and rejuvenates dehydrated tissues.

Fasting, or the avoidance of food and drinking only water for a certain period, is also known to help delay aging. Fasting with adequate hydration can help flush out toxins in our body, as well as help control our weight. Fasting can also result to healthier skin (due to fasting’s detoxifying effect on the body), better bowel movement, better blood circulation and delayed cell deterioration.
