Rejuvenation of apples, cherries and celery: scientists have identified leading products in the content of anti-aging substances.
Proper nutrition is one of the main pillars of longevity. But it's not just about calorie restriction. But also on products that contain compounds that help protect the body from aging. We are talking about groprotectors (that is, substances that help slow down aging). As biologist Alexey Moskalev said, research based on data from houseplants has shown that at least 300 plant species contain about 90-plus gut-protecting substances.
Here are the leaders in the content of "anti-aging" compounds among the plants in our region:
Apples - 28 grofotector compounds,.
Cherry - 23,.
Celery - 21,.
Beans - 20,.
Parsley, carrot, strawberries - 19,.
Blueberries - 18,.
Pea - 17,.
Cranberries - 16.
In other words, shields against old age can be grown in your own garden! But alas, no product contains all the healthy ingredients. Therefore, you should strive for variety on your table. It's also best to stay away from chips, instant noodles, cereal and other ultra-processed foods. They have been shown to accelerate aging.
What else is important for longevity is in our cards ⤴.
