If
you're over 40 and want to defy each passing year while promoting more
youthful hair, nails and skin, the below 7 foods will help you stock up
on some of the most powerful anti-aging nutrients around.
1.
Olive Oil - Not only do the monounsaturated fats contained in olive oil
support healthy arteries and a healthy heart, but olive oil also
contains polyphenols, a potent anti-oxidant that may help prevent a
number of age-related diseases. We recommend organic extra virgin olive
oil for the most anti-aging bang for your buck.
2. Red Wine -
That's right, a glass of wine daily may indeed have a positive effect on
your health due to its resveratrol content, a unique anti-oxidant that
can help fight against diabetes, heart disease, and age-related memory
loss.
3. Beans - The unique proteins in beans thicken and
strengthen your hair cells, so you can enjoy a full head of hair as you
lengthen your years. :)
4. Brazil Nuts - Brazil nuts are rich in
selenium, a mineral which aids in the production of the anti-oxidant
glutathione to help slow down the skin aging process. Just 2 nuts a day
will provide you with enough selenium to reap its anti-aging benefits.
5.
Tomatoes - Tomatoes are rich in lycopene, which has been shown to
support heart health and healthy cholesterol levels as you age.
Lycopene also acts as a natural sun block to keep skin youthful and
protected from harmful UV rays.
6. Raspberries & Blueberries
- These two berries contain important anti-oxidants to help offset
inflammation and oxidative stress that contribute to skin aging and
wrinkles. Just one serving of either or these berries contains more
anti-oxidants than 10 servings of most other fruits and vegetables!
7.
Organic Eggs - Despite the bad rap eggs get because of their
cholesterol content, which is based on completely erroneous science,
eggs are rich in biotin and iron which help to promote healthy, youthful
skin and hair.
Now, apart from stocking up on anti-oxidants and
other anti-aging vitamins and minerals via the above foods, there is one
other extremely important nutrient that you won't find in the above
foods that very well may hold the key to ULTIMATE health and
longevity...
We tell you all about this "super nutrient" at the
link below, and how lacking it can really have a devastatingly negative
impact on your health. We also show you exactly how to figure out if
you are deficient in this critical nutrient, and if you are, precisely
how to correct it so you don't have to worry about all those nasty
negative side effects!
