6 Nutrients for a LONGER Life
Good health and long life don’t necessarily go hand-in-hand. age
These days, you can live a long time, but be riddled with problems that make your long life miserable.
Personally, I want to live longer AND healthier.
And these 6 nutrients have been scientifically proven to help you do BOTH.
Age used to be measured purely in years lived. That’s called your chronological age.
But now there’s another way to measure age that’s a gauge of how healthy your body is. It’s called biological age, an indicator of how old your CELLS are.
Younger biological age indicates better health and more vitality.
With that in mind, 6 key nutrients can reverse the clock on your biological age.
- Vitamin D does more than strengthen your bones. Studies show maintaining ideal vitamin D levels can help you live LONGER and BETTER by reducing the risk of deadly conditions, like heart disease, cancer, and cognitive decline. Good sources are sunlight, fatty fish, eggs, and beef liver.
- Vitamin C is an antioxidant powerhouse that combats the cellular damage that ages you inside and out. It supports healthier skin while fighting the free radicals that cause disease and aging. Good sources are bell peppers, tomatoes, berries, and citrus fruits.
- Vitamin E is another critical antioxidant that protects against oxidative stress and inflammation. By doing so, E has wide-reaching, age-fighting benefits, from wound healing to eye protection to heart health. Good sources are nuts, seeds, broccoli, and spinach.
- Vitamin K keeps your bones strong and your blood flowing smoothly. You can’t have a long, healthy life without either of those factors. Good sources are broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and green leafy vegetables.
- Vitamin B12 helps form red blood cells and is essential for DNA formation. Because of its vital role in nerve health and avoiding anemia, B12 is critical for maintaining strength, vitality, and longevity. Good sources are red meat, fish, liver, and eggs.
- Magnesium is critical for nerve function, muscle relaxation, and energy production. It reduces the risk of hypertension and helps prevent osteoporosis. A strong heart and bones are the foundation for healthy longevity. Good sources are whole grains, nuts, seeds, leafy greens, and avocados.
Of course, this isn’t an exhaustive list.
But it’s a great beginning if you want to age well. And if you’re loading up on foods that contain these essential nutrients, you can bet you’ll ALSO be getting plenty of other important ones in the process.
Those are the kind of side effects I can get behind!
P.S. Natural DNA hack SHIELDS you against aging.
