Anti-Aging Foods

This a good article that goes through a list of 7 things you can eat to help keep you young (it won't put a hold on time however but at least help make it feel that way).

1. Eat your produce (especially blueberries, the king of the fruits).

2. Get your protein. Although I don't necessarily agree with the article in the part where it talks about eating the protein to stop from losing muscle. The best way to slow protein catabolism in your muscles is resistance training.

3. Eat your fish. Salmon, my favorite. Full of great nutrients and monounsaturated fat to help keep your cholesterol in check.

4. Whole Grains. Eat your oatmeal, whole grain bread (with the first ingredient being "Whole Wheat Flour"), whole wheat pasta etc.

5. Exercise. All I'm going to say is: "Duh."

6. Red Wine. You might have had to look at that twice to see if I really wrote that but sure, the resveratrol found in red wine has found to have some great anti-oxidants in it. BUT, keep it to a 5 ounce glass a day.

7. Nuts and chocolate. Again, you're probably scratching your head that I'm even mentioning these. Almonds, can't go wrong with them (and whole almonds, not slaughtered in salt and honey or smoked or anything else). DARK chocolate is the key to the chocolate part. With the other part being, just a little bit, not the entire King Size bar.
