Our government has been passing out conflicting health advice for the last few decades, trying to keep up with new information.

 

So, you’re not alone if you’re confused about what to eat, especially for long life.

 

We were told to eat eggs, and then to avoid eggs, and now to eat eggs...

 

Fat was bad but now we’ve learned that there is good and bad fat.

 

Luckily for us, we have actual research on longevity from studies spanning decades, and we can uncover what centurions eat to live so long.

 

The first step is throwing out the traditional food pyramid and instead eating a plant-based diet that’s half vegetables and fruit.

 

With that in mind, incorporate the following superfoods into your diet for long life, and one you can enjoy!

 

Organic, whole grain oatmeal and other whole grains  

 

Carbs have gotten a bad rap lately too.

 

But that doesn’t mean you should go on the Atkins Diet. To the contrary, it’s made people sick to completely cut carbs.

 

Carbs provide needed energy.

 

If you eat the Standard American Diet, you’ll get too many simple carbs that cause problems.

 

However, oatmeal is a fiber rich grain that regulates cholesterol.

 

It contains beta-glucan, which reduces LDL, or “bad” cholesterol, and oatmeal even blocks cholesterol from entering your bloodstream.

 

Whole grains reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and stroke.

 

Skip the sugary oatmeal that comes in packs with dried fruit or “one-minute oatmeal”. Buy whole grain oatmeal.

 

Groats are another option but need to cook for much longer. They’re the hulled kernel of the grain so they have the bran portion and endosperm, which is the part we get when we buy cut oats.

 

Steel cut oats, or Irish Oats, are groats cut a few times with steel blades, so you get all the goodness and nutrition that you do from groats.

 

Oatmeal lowers cholesterol, extends life, and makes a great base for adding other superfoods like maple syrup, honey, blueberries, fruit, nuts, and seeds.

 

Alternate your breakfasts with oatmeal and eggs for a great start to your day.

 

Organic, free range eggs

 

Eggs actually help your cholesterol by improving your good HDL levels.

 

Eggs help regulate blood sugar according to a study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

 

The study found that middle-aged and older men who ate 4 eggs a week had lower blood sugar, and a 38% lower risk of diabetes than those who ate only one egg a week.

 

We’re learning that eggs from free range chickens are packed with even more omega 3 fats and other good nutrients than eggs from caged hens.

 

You can actually raise your own hens in most cities, which often allow up to 4 or 6 hens. (No roosters for obvious reasons!)

 

Chickens are fun and entertaining pets that provide eggs once they’re about 6 months old.

 

You can see the difference in color when you crack open a free range chicken egg, and the flavor is amazing too.

 

If you’ve had trouble peeling a fresh egg, try this method:

 

Put eggs in water so they’re covered and bring to a boil.

 

While waiting, fill a bowl with ice cubes and water.

 

Boil the eggs for exactly 15 minutes, and then spoon them into the ice water.

Wait half an hour and the egg shells will slide off.

 

To make deviled eggs into a super food, mix the hardboiled egg yolks with avocado and your favorite spices before returning to the cooked egg whites.

 

Brightly colored fruit and vegetables

 

All fruits and vegetables are good for you, but brightly colored produce is even more beneficial because the natural pigments prevent and fight cancer.

 

Okinawans have the world’s longest life expectancy and very low rates of heart disease and cancer.

 

They have a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, especially the dark green and yellow varieties.

They eat large quantities of sweet potatoes, which they’ve actually used instead of the traditional Japanese staple of rice.

 

You can slice sweet potatoes into stir fries, make sweet potato fries, bake them, or add them to a root bake with parsnips, carrots, and potatoes.

 

Red and orange bell peppers have powerful antioxidants.

 

They’re also an excellent source of vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin B6.

 

Red bell peppers contain phytochemicals and carotenoids, which are antioxidants that have anti-inflammatory properties.

 

All berries are extremely healthy and promote long life.

 

They’re packed with antioxidants that protect against cancer, boost our immune system, guard the liver and brain, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

 

Berries have 50 times more antioxidants than animal-based foods!

 

Blueberries, a famous superfood, are full of antioxidants, which fight aging, disease, and inflammation.

 

Hot Peppers

 

You’re in luck if you like spicy food!

A Chinese study found that people who ate spicy food 3 to 5 days a week reduced their risk of dying by 15%.

 

A study published in PLOS One analyzed data from more than 16,000 Americans from a span of 19 years.

 

This study found that hot red chili pepper consumption was associated with a 13% lower risk of death.

 

The key ingredient is the capsaicin, which has anti-inflammatory properties and boosts your metabolism.

 

Many studies suggest that capsaicin may act as an anti-obesity, antioxidant, anti-inflammation, anti-cancer, and antimicrobial.

 

Oily fish

 

Eskimos have a very high fat diet, yet they’re extremely healthy due to the fat source from oily fish.

 

People in Japan have the longest life expectancy in the world, thanks to their traditional diet which is high in fish.

 

Eating more fish reduces your red meat intake, and that also reduces your risk for heart disease while offering a wealth of health benefits.

 

Oily fish such as salmon, mackerel, sardines, and trout are a good source of vitamins A and D, which are good for the immune system.

 

Many people eating the Standard American Diet ingest high levels of omega 6, which isn’t a good thing, and don’t get enough omega 3s that we get from fish.

 

The high levels of omega-3 fatty acids in oily fish have been linked to a lowered risk of heart disease, brain damage, and stroke.

 

The DHA, or docosahexaenoic acid, in fish combats Alzheimer’s Disease because the DHA slows down the progression of the disease.

 

Nuts

 

Almonds are rich in fiber, protein, and heart-healthy fats.

 

A study published in The New England Journal of Medicine found that those who ate the most nuts had a lower risk of dying of any disease, especially cancer, heart disease, or respiratory disease.

 

They also contain high levels of monounsaturated fats so they lower bad cholesterol.

 

Walnuts might also prevent cognitive decline. A study published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease found that eating walnuts helped memory.

 

Avocados

 

The heart-healthy monounsaturated fats in avocados lower bad cholesterol and fight heart disease.

 

A study published in the journal Cancer Research found that molecules in avocados targeted stem cells of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which is an aggressive cancer that kills 90 percent of people who are diagnosed over the age of 65.

 

Other studies found that eating avocado helps you slim down, actually helping to lower belly fat.

 

Chia seeds

 

One secret to long life is getting enough fiber in your diet. Fiber is key to suppressing your appetite and keeping blood sugar low.

 

Chia seeds are surprisingly full of fiber with a whopping 11 grams in just two tablespoons.

 

These seeds also lower your risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes, according to a study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine.

 

People who increased their dietary fiber intake significantly lowered their risk of death.

 

Add chia seeds to oatmeal, yogurt, smoothies, and salads.

 

And start small when adding more fiber to your diet so your body can adjust. That helps prevent gas!

 

Herbs and spices

 

One of the best things you can do for your health is to grow your own garden full of vegetables and herbs.

 

If space is limited, you can grow a container garden.

 

Herbs can be grown in a window box, or a large planter with openings on the sides.

 

Using fresh basil, cilantro, rosemary, and other herbs gives you the benefits of eating fresh, leafy vegetables and all the benefits of eating herbs. They also add a lot of flavor.

 

Turmeric is an anti-inflammatory that improves many diseases and conditions.

 

Cinnamon, a common spice we all love, also treats disease.

Herbs benefit your health weather they’re dried or fresh. Remember to buy organic if you’re not growing your own.

 

Non tropical vegetable oils like olive, peanut, avocado, and sesame seed oil

 

The Mediterranean Diet boosts the immune systems and lowers bad cholesterol and blood pressure, largely due to the use of olive oil.

 

It’s better to cook with non-tropical oils than traditional oils, but you’ll get even more health benefits by using healthy oils raw.

 

Use oil in your salads or even add a teaspoon to a smoothie.

 

For optimal health and an extended life, jot down these superfoods and make them a regular part of your diet.

“Do not deprive me of my age. I have earned it.” ― May Sarton

 

Life is in a constant state of flux. Things are always moving, and that makes it an interesting ride for all of us.

 

Whether it’s trying to make it through college in your twenties, establishing your career in your thirties…

 

…raising your family in your forties, or working towards a golden retirement in your fifties and beyond…

 

…we’re all doing what we can to make the most out of life.

 

That also includes being on top of your health and nutrition. And as our bodies change, so do our needs.

 

When you hit a certain age, you’re doing different stuff from other folks. You have priorities and goals that specifically apply to you.

 

A wise man once said, “We’re never static – we’re either growing or declining.”

 

Nothing stays the same and we’re always trying to roll with the changes. That means you need to know the best way to keep yourself in top condition no matter what point in life you’re at.

 

Hanging on for the ride

 

Rosemary, a sixty-three-year-old mother of three (and grandmother of four), had trouble keeping up with the demands of her daily routine.

 

She was in the middle of retiring from her long-time job as a brand manager for a publications company. Her plan was to use her severance pay and savings to transition to a self-employed career.

 

“My grandkids are a whiz at the computer and the internet, so they’ve been helping me put up my website for my freelance business,” Rosemary says.

 

Everything was going great until she ran into an unexpected roadblock. Rosemary had been dealing with inflammation for several years now, but now the pain had gone way up.

 

“It’s like someone flipped a switch the day I hit sixty,” Rosemary shares. “Suddenly it was a chore to get out of bed or even hold my toothbrush. The pain had gone from tolerable to unbearable.”

 

And Rosemary’s energy levels weren’t quite what it used to be. The same could be said for other people her age, but it came as a surprise to her because she’s been naturally athletic all her life.

 

She said, “I thought being a runner and tennis player for most of my life was enough, but my body told me otherwise.”

 

So, Rosemary decided to consult with her doctor who then referred her to a nutritionist. After a few appointments and some back and forth discussion, they came up with a specialized eating plan.

 

“It changed everything for me,” she said, beaming. “Once I got rid of all the unhealthy stuff I was eating and unlearned my attachment to them…it felt like shaving off a decade and a half off my age!”

 

After getting her much-needed nutritional boost, Rosemary got back on track with her goals. She quickly wrapped her old job and land on her feet during the transition.

 

With her family’s help, she managed to score a few clients right out of the gate and get her freelance career going. Now that her hours are flexible, Rosemary has a lot more time to enjoy a healthy, well-balanced life with her family and friends.

 

If you’re trying to figure out the best way to nourish yourself, here’s a nifty guide to help you. Keep reading to find out how to stay strong and healthy no matter what age you are:

 

#1: Making the most out of your 20s

 

This is the time when your body will let a lot of stuff slide: pulling all-nighters, eating anything and everything under the sun…

 

…partying 24/7, and only going to the gym when you feel like it.

 

Also, people in this age bracket are likely to be going through some pretty major life changes like a new job, graduating from school and living independently.

 

Indeed, this particular period in time holds a lot of exciting opportunities. But these new challenges also come with a new kind of pressure.

 

This will take a toll on your health and could lead to issues like emotional eating and other poor health habits. So as early as now, it’s important to cultivate the right habits that will carry on later in life:

 

·         Work out: this might sound like trite advice, but don’t scoff at this. Like everything else, this is an excellent time for you to invest in your body. Strike the iron and all that! Make the habit of hitting the gym (or find free alternatives if budget is an issue) to further develop your physique while it’s in its prime. You’re at a point where doing so will pay off exponentially.

 

·         You’ll need a good variety of food to provide you with the nutrients you’ll need while making a name for yourself in the real world. That means a good serving of fruits and vegetables (to fight oxidative stress and premature aging).

 

·         Macronutrients like protein are essential for muscle growth. Micronutrients like calcium keep your bones strong (which is important because they’re still growing at this point). Fiber-rich food should also be on your to-eat list to support your gut  health (which is crucial to better immunity).

 

·         If you opt to eat meat for protein (i.e. chicken, fish and beef), make sure to get quality sources to ensure you’re getting the best bang for your buck. Those going the vegan or vegetarian route can still get protein from non-animal sources.

 

·         Having enough antioxidants are important at this stage. Free radicals (a.k.a. mutated cells) arise from oxidative stress – this not only leads to accelerated aging but even cancer and other sicknesses. So be sure to load up on fruits and veggies (the more colorful, the better) to counteract the effects of a high-paced, stressful lifestyle.

 

#2: Keeping up the pace in your 30s

 

By this time, you’re taking on even more responsibilities now. That means should keep building on your healthy habits from your earlier years to keep yourself going.

 

For one thing, cell activity will slightly drop. As such, you’ll have to step it up to keep your skin glowing, your muscles firm and your overall endurance up to scratch.

 

That said, here are a few points to keep in mind:

 

·         Antioxidants should still be on your daily menu. Keep eating those green leafy vegetables for you, and don’t forget other foods rich in immune-boosting nutrients. Vitamin C is perhaps the biggest one. This keeps sickness at bay and supports collagen growth (vital for youthful-looking skin), and you’ll find this in citrus fruits like grapefruits and oranges, as well as veggies like broccoli, kale and spinach.

 

·         Meanwhile, vitamin B6 functions as a supportive nutrient for your immune system as well.

 

·         Again, a lot of vegetables has this, along with animal-based ones like tuna, salmon and chicken.

 

·         Vitamin E acts as both an antioxidant and immune booster. Eat nuts like almonds, sunflower seeds and olives to get your fix.

 

·         One other thing: your metabolism isn’t what it used to be, so now’s the time to be a bit pickier about what you eat. It probably won’t be as easy to burn off those burgers and chips like before. And don’t feel bad if you can’t chug down beer (or your alcoholic drink of choice) like there’s no tomorrow – that comes with the territory.

 

#3: 40 ain’t nothing but a number

 

No matter what cynical coffee mugs, t-shirts or movies tell you, hitting the big 4-0 is still an excellent time in your life to stay on top of things.

 

The important thing now is to stay vigilant against the hallmarks of aging. This includes lowered collagen levels (which started around your 30s), osteoporosis and UV damage.

 

While it’s necessary to maintain the same food habits from the previous years, you should also keep these tips in mind:

 

·         Dietary fats, in particular, are important. They are made up of fatty acids that benefit your brain (as it’s almost made up of fat in itself!). Plus, they help transport nutrients across cells and dissolve fat-soluble vitamins. Fruits (like avocados) and nuts (e.g. almonds), along with fish (salmon, mackerel and herring) are rich in fats and omega-3 acids.

 

·         Keep eating your leafy greens as they also contain iron, something you’ll need more of as you get older. Women, in particular, are vulnerable to iron deficiency, so stay on top of this.

 

·         Gut health may be an issue, and you’ll react to certain foods (like allergies or IBS) more than you did before. Get into probiotic-rich foods to cope with this change (e.g. cabbage, cauliflower, root vegetables, and fruits such as dates).

 

·         Stay in shape. Regular exercise is more important than ever because your metabolism will experience another drop. Also, you’ll want to keep a closer eye on your alcohol consumption, too. Moderation is key, so pace your drinking days throughout the week.

 

#4: Staying strong in your 50s

 

You’re at the mid-way point now. You’ve reached a new level of maturity and tend to care less about other people’s expectations or what they think.

 

You’re more focused on building your previous goals taking things to the next level. As such, so you’ll need to take care of the crucial aspects of reaching this milestone.

 

·         Lower estrogen and testosterone levels are expected (for women and men respectively), so don’t freak out. You can do plenty nutrition-wise to soften the blow of aging.

 

·         Muscle mass may decrease at this point, so keep up your protein intake as you work out. Don’t feel pressured to do high-intensity stuff like cross-fit and focus on pre- and post-workout rituals like stretching, warming up, etc.

 

·         It’s time to ramp up the antioxidant foods even more to fight the onset of Alzheimer’s and the like. Don’t forget your omega-3 and keep eating foods with healthy fatty acids. Speaking of which, avoid foods high in harmful saturated fat and those with a high glycemic index (GI).

 

·         Inflammation will become more of an issue. So, you should also eat anti-inflammatory foods like dark leafy greens, peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes. You might also want to try anti-inflammatory spices like turmeric, cumin and cardamom.

 

#5: Being awesome in your 60s and beyond

 

Let’s be honest, you’re no spring chicken, but that’s not a bad thing. With age comes experience – and wisdom.

 

This gives you an edge when it comes to staying on top of your game. As far as nutrition is concerned, you just need to maintain the right habits to stay active and focused as the younger folk.

 

·         Your brain needs more loving. Make sure to keep it finely tuned with those fatty acids and other brain-friendly nutrients. Load up on antioxidants that fight the effects of aging, and anti-inflammatory foods that counteract chronic pain.

 

·         Keep your tummy happy too with probiotics and gut-friendly foods as well. At this age, you need to make extra sure your digestive functions are running smoothly by promoting healthy gut bacteria.

 

·         Exercise-wise, try low-impact activities such as yoga or qi gong which focus on staying flexible and mobile for people in this age group. Swimming and other water-based activities are great too.

 

·         Protein is also important to compensate for a loss of muscle tone and skin elasticity. Vitamin D is helpful, while plant or animal-based foods rich in protein are also necessary. Stay on top of your vitamin B12 requirements by eating, meat, fish and eggs (or an alternate vegetable source if you prefer).

 

·         Take care of your fiber intake via grains, veggies and fruit-based sources like bananas, persimmons and apples.

 

·         Speaking of vitamins, get supplements to make up for any nutritional decline at this stage. Those vitamins we covered are a vital part of avoiding fatigue and weakness.

 

·         Metabolism slows down again – along with appetite. If you’re eating smaller portions than before, your meals should be more nutrient-dense.

 

·         Have regular check-ups. Get screened for potential issues, and work closely with your doctor to make sure everything’s in order.

Playing the long game

 

Regardless of where you are in life right now, there is one thing you need to watch out for.

Modern, processed foods may be convenient for a lot of people, but this nutritional shortcut comes at a high price.

 

The problem with these pre-packaged foods is that they’re often loaded with sugar and devoid of any real nutrients. While they satisfy your short-term needs, most food from the Western diet will wreck your long-term health.

 

You might save time by eating them now, but you’ll also shorten your life in the process.

 

Most people have an “out of sight, out of mind” kind of thinking when it comes to nutrition…

…but the truth is that you can’t afford to do this.

 

(Not if you want to enjoy your senior years free from sickness and pain, anyway.)

 

It’s time to start living in your prime, all the time.

Fatty Liver Treatment – How Can I Reduce My Fatty Liver?

 

Fatty Liver Treatment - Cutting out salt helps, but it’s not enough to reverse NAFLD (Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease). The goods new is you can reverse NAFLD by tackling the underlying cause of it (which is probably different from what you have been told). Read on to find out more.

Fatty Liver Treatment – Fatty Liver Caused by This Everyday Mineral (cut it out)

 

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is on a steep rise, and it doesn’t seem to be slowing down.

 

Which makes it clear it’s caused by something we’re doing differently now than what was done 20-30 years ago.

 

A new study in the Journal of Clinical Medicine now reveals that this something is a common mineral that most people consume on a daily basis.

 

A team from the University of Groningen in the Netherlands analyzed previously collected data of 6,132 subjects.

 

Firstly, they looked at results of sodium urine tests that were carried out periodically for 48 hours over two consecutive 24-hour periods. From this, they were able to analyze the subject’s sodium intake.

 

They also used the Fatty Liver Index and Hepatic Steatosis Index for reference. 31.6 percent of the participants had a score of 60 or higher on the Fatty Liver Index.

 

People with scores higher than 60 were more likely to have metabolic syndrome, diabetes, high blood pressure, and a history of cardiovascular disease.

 

They also had higher amounts of sodium in their urine at 163.63 Mmol (millimoles) per 24 hours versus the 136.76 Mmol in people whose fatty liver index scores were below 60.

 

And people with non-alcoholic liver disease were 54 percent more likely to be high sodium consumers compared to those with healthy livers.

 

So why do people who consume a lot of sodium have this fatty liver risk?

 

Two words – insulin resistance!

 

Sodium is hard to avoid these days, and it exists in so many manufactured foods to preserve shelf life. Therefore, it’s best to stick to fresh organic foods and avoid foods such as canned items, deli meats, bottled sauces, and pre-prepared meals.

 

The Institute of Medicine recommends that adults consume 1.5 grams of salt per day. Very active athletes or outdoor workers who lose a lot of salt through sweat can consume more.

 

Fatty Liver Treatment - Cutting out salt helps, but it’s not enough to reverse NAFLD; to do so, you need to get to the root cause of the problem, which I will explain here…

 

Fatty Liver Treatment – Fatty Liver Causes This Fatal (Non-Liver) Disease

 

It often affects overweight or obese people, but that doesn’t mean you’re immune to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

 

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) will very likely lead to a liver failure. That’s obvious.

 

But there is another condition that at first glance has nothing to do with NAFLD. And this condition might be even more dangerous.

 

And a new study published in The Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology reveals that those suffering NAFLD are 88% more likely to be hit by this surprising disease.

 

Scientists collected medical data of 111,492 adult patients who visited the Samsung Medical Center in Korea between 2003 and 2013. They were all above 40 years old and those with previous heart attacks, records of cardiovascular disease, a history of liver cirrhosis, previous hepatitis B or C, cancer, or high alcohol intake were excluded from the study.

 

All the patient’s necessary information was collected, including health history, demographic characteristics, smoking status, alcohol consumption, medical characteristics and medication use.

 

Every patient was given an abdominal ultrasound on the first visit and during follow-ups to check liver composition.

 

It was found that people with NAFLD were more likely to suffer heart attacks during the follow-up period.

 

Compared to those without NAFLD, those with low NAFLD had an increased risk of 70 percent and those with intermediate-to-high NAFLD an increased risk of 88 percent.

 

This means that you don’t have to have severe NAFLD for your heart attack risk to be raised. Moderate cases are risky too.

 

Other studies revealed that NAFLD sufferers fell into higher risk categories when it comes to strokes, clogged large arteries, and cardiovascular related death.

 

The good news is that NAFLD can be completely reversed by tackling the underlying cause of it (which is probably different from what you have been told). I’ll explain all that here…

 

Fatty Liver Treatment – Psoriasis and Liver Failure Connection Discovered

 

Psoriasis is a skin disease (or so most people think).

 

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is a liver disease (or so most people think).

 

So how can a new study presented at the 28th Congress of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology in Madrid prove that one leads to the other with possibly fatal consequences?

 

The Spanish scientists recruited 64 male subjects, all with severe psoriasis and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

 

NAFLD occurs when fat builds up in your liver. Your liver is a fatty organ anyway, but if more than 10 percent of your liver is fat, usually caused by overeating (if not caused by alcohol) then you have NAFLD.

 

The American Liver Foundation estimates that around a third of Americans have NAFLD, including 20 percent of children.

 

The 64 subjects in the Spanish study were all obese with a body mass index above 30. 53 percent of them had diabetes as well.

 

The researchers wanted to know whether the severity of psoriasis and the severity of NDFLD were related.

 

To examine this, they used the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index to measure the severity of their subjects’ psoriasis and an ultrasound to rate liver stiffness.

 

Liver stiffness indicates that the liver contains a lot of scar tissue that can no longer function as liver tissue. It is the stage on the way to liver failure, depending on what percentage of the liver is affected.

 

They concluded that only those people with the highest psoriasis scores had significant liver stiffness, suggesting that the most severe psoriasis cases were also the most severe NAFLD cases.

 

So how can a skin disease and a liver disease be so connected?
