Anti-aging fruits and vegetables ranking, anti-aging diet points

Medical research has shown that diseases related to aging and gene mutations are related to damage from free radicals. Therefore, maintaining sufficient antioxidants in the body and removing free radicals in a timely manner are important means of anti-aging. Experts point out that vegetables and fruits play a very important role in preventing and treating some human diseases related to free radical damage and in the anti-aging process. Dietary guidelines in countries around the world list the intake of vegetables and fruits as important.

Recently, relevant personnel from Tianjin Institute of Environmental Medicine measured and compared the antioxidant activity of 66 common vegetables and fruits in China. The results are as follows.

In addition, among the many fruits and vegetables, Americans exclude the fruits that are most beneficial to health. Among them, apples rank first because they are rich in fiber, which can supplement the human body with sufficient fiber, reduce the incidence of heart disease, and help lose weight. Many Americans regard apples as a must-have for weight loss. They diet one day a week and only eat apples on that day, which is known as "Apple Day."

Dietary precautions for anti-aging

In life, there are many reasons that cause human aging, such as overeating, lack of exercise, mental stress, lack of sleep, smoking and drinking, environmental pollution, etc. Only by effectively eliminating the root causes of accelerated aging can we achieve significant results in delaying aging. The so-called "anti-aging food" is just one of the remedies.

At the same time, although anti-aging foods are good, they must also play a role on the basis of promoting nutritional balance. Simply eating a few so-called "healthy foods" and ignoring other foods will not bring the expected health effects.
