October 19, 2011

Did you know that wrinkles and fine lines can be reduced by what you decide to put in your refrigerator? So let’s turn back the clock and reduce the signs of aging both on the inside and outside of your body. Consume plenty of these low in calories, high in nutrients and tummy filling anti-aging foods.

Best Food Choices

A few of my favorite anti-aging choices and their benefits are; spinach for sharper vision, avocados for potassium and healthy fats, blueberries for memory boost, vitamin C and antioxidants, omega-3 salmon anti-inflammatory effects, yogurt for healthy gut and gums, almonds, green tea and turmeric for cancer prevention.

Choose some of these best foods for anti-aging to help you live young:

Best carbohydrate choices include artichokes, avocados, dark-green leafy vegetables, broccoli, cabbage, spinach, romaine lettuce, cherries, berries (blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, etc.), apples, pears, barley, bean spouts, endive, eggplant, kale, red and green peppers, bok choy, celery, cucumbers, kidney beans, pinto beans, chick peas, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, honeydew melons, lentils, mushrooms, tomatoes, turnips, snow peas and slow cooking oatmeal.

Best protein sources include wild Alaskan salmon, halibut, trout, poultry, yogurt, high EFA (essential fatty acid) eggs, kefir, cottage cheese and tofu.

Best fats include extra virgin olive oil, flax oil, flax seed, nuts (almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts and macadamia), pumpkin, sesame and sunflower seeds.
