Aging is evitable...but we can try slowing down aging by including certain foods in our diet.
For that we need to take foods having lots of
- Anti oxidants= production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are one of main mechanism of cell death and turnover..so foods like SMALL RED BEANS , BLUE BERRIES, BLACK GRAPES having lot of antioxidant should be taken.
- Vitamin E= this is also antioxidant that reacts even with inactive oxy species reducing damage to cell membranes and enzymes in it...food like ALMOND , SPINACH , TOMATO, AVACADO have vitamin E
- Selenium = its an essential micro nutrient helps in reducing the elasticity and hardening of skin...LIVER, TUNA , OYSTERS are good sources for it
- Omega 3 fatty acids= "telomers" are part of chromosomes in human cells which divide over 50-60 times in life time and finally die... studies say omega 3 fatty acids seems to have affective in increasing life of telomers and delay aging...COD LIVER OIL , WALLNUTS, SARDINES are the good sources omega 3 fatty acids
- Vit C= this vitamin takes part in active healing of human tissues hence foods like INDIAN GOOSE BERRY, other CITRUS FRUITS are worth taking daily..
