Nutrition Against Aging

From a certain age, diet becomes a key factor in staying young and fit. Achieving that balanced diet doesn't require great sacrifices, just a little common sense and a slight change in habits. In our dishes, we can create a green base with broccoli or Brussels sprouts, rich in vitamins A and D. The cream color of potatoes or cauliflower—two of the most complete foods—pairs well with the orange of carrots, which are rich in carotene, compounds that the liver transforms into vitamin A. Finally, a touch of golden color with a good splash of olive oil, which has a long list of healing properties that are too numerous to mention. And very little or no salt. Purists claim that the only thing that doesn't make you gain weight is what stays on the plate. But there's no need to go to such extremes. To maintain an ideal weight, nutritionists say it's better to eat at least five times a day, but in small amounts. In this way, metabolism stays active, and we avoid the body, deprived of food for hours, panicking and tending to store everything it receives in anticipation of new fasting periods. Based on the above, it's important to know a little about what we consume—vegetables, meats, fish, fruits, legumes, seeds. This way, we can achieve a very suitable balance to reach a balanced and healthy diet that benefits us as the years go by.
