One of the most depressing truths of life is that we’re all getting older. There are lots of people that deny this, lots of people who thrash against the inevitable with more and more extreme cosmetic procedures, never willing to accept that they too are human. I’m here to tell you that yes; you’re going to get old. There’s nothing you can do to stop that but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing you can do to slow it. There are all sorts of wonderful foods which can ease the symptoms of ageing and help you look much younger for much longer!
- Blueberries are the most potent antioxidants of all the berries, a group well known for its high level of antioxidants. They help to promote an opening of the blood vessels which increases blood flow to the whole body while reducing levels of inflammation and protecting against any nerve damage.
- Dark Chocolate is chock full of antioxidants. There’s almost nothing else which has as many of these miraculous things in it. It’s supposed to increase your mental functions and boost your mood too. Make sure the dark chocolate you’re eating is unprocessed and is primarily cacao as this is the key component!
- Broccoli is said to fight the chances of certain kinds of cancer occurring as well as having a healthy dose of antioxidants. It’s one of the most nutritious of all vegetables but to get the most out of your broccoli you’re going to want to steam or boil it gently before consuming.
- Omega 3 fatty acids are most commonly found in oily fish and are the most powerful natural anti-inflammatory agents known to man. Most illnesses cause an inflammatory reaction of one kind or another so omega 3 acids will help to preserve your cells from any damage those diseases would usually cause them!
