The Natural Approach to Reverse Aging
Reclaiming your youth does not have to be an impossible task. It can be as simple as changing the things we do to ourselves because the damage that we bring on ourselves is the easiest to correct. There are a number of ways that you can optimize your health and prolong your life. We’ll discuss here some foods that are proven to help reverse aging.

You Are What You Eat.





The visible signs of aging can get to the best of us. Even the strong hearted may not be spared the agony when it comes to noticing their first ever grey hair, first fine line or the loss of skin volume and elasticity.

If you are like most people, you may have thought that the first wrinkle on your face was going to take you downhill from there. Or if you have been impressed by the effects of cosmetic surgery celebrities, wondering if looking young would be worth using up all your savings for, you are wrong. You do not need expensive surgeries, creams, or treatments to age reversely. But what you do need is food.

That is correct and it doesn’t get any simpler than that. Without ever actually realizing what a significant difference our diet can make in reverse aging, we have a tendency to opt for less reliable and potentially harmful methods to look younger.

While eating the rainbow in all its glory will do wonders for improving your overall health, our particular concern is with foods that halt the effects of aging. So here are some top contenders that can produce noticeable effects on how well you age.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes are great for reverse aging, especially the skin. Tomatoes have a very large quantity of carotenoids in them which have been studied extensively to protect and shield from damage caused by sunlight.
UV light forms free radicals of the naturally occurring and otherwise harmless elements in the atmosphere. These free radicals, in turn, can react with our skin among other things, damaging, drying, exhausting and eventually causing premature aging of the skin.

The specific carotenoids in tomatoes also naturally inhibit the enzyme collagenase that breaks down collagen in the skin. Collagen is important for strength, whether it is associated with skin, hair or any other tissue of the body.

If it is maintained in adequate amounts in the skin, it makes the skin stronger and more resistant to factors that cause aging. Using tomatoes in their raw form can help gain maximum reverse aging benefits.

Green Tea

Green tea already has an established reputation as an effective weight loss agent but its benefits do not stop there. In fact, you can also add in some green tea to your reverse aging regimen to look years younger than your biological age.

This particular benefit is derived from the anti-oxidant properties of green tea.
Tracing it back to its roots, green tea is said to have come from China, hence the legend of a Chinese monk who lived for almost 150 years. When he was asked by their king how he had lived for so long, the monk is said to have thanked tea for it.

This little tidbit might be nothing more than a folktale, but the fact remains that modern research has indeed proved the old monk right.

Various oxides and radicals produced by the normal metabolism of oxygen in the body exert stress on the skin. They attack the skin, making it weak and fragile, also causing it to lose its elasticity. All of this eventually presents distressing effects as aging. Here, anti-oxidants in green tea can help in eliminating these radicals and limit the harmful effects that lead to aging.



Yogurt

Yogurt is known to be full of nutrients like calcium, vitamin D and many proteins. It is known to be of great use for stronger bones, healthier hair and softer skin. Yogurt is also a very important food for reverse aging.
Yogurt contains lactic acid, which can do wonders for your skin because it destroys dead skin or epidermal cells. It also works very well to minimize the harmful effects of overexposure sunlight and moisturizes the skin to keep its natural elasticity for a younger-looking you.

Aloe Vera

Drinking aloe vera gel every day can literally freeze your aging process! Aloe vera is an excellent promoter of collagen synthesis, which as discussed earlier, is very important to reverse aging. Aloe vera also detoxifies your body, removing many toxins from your gastric and intestinal systems. Many of these toxins would otherwise cause premature aging.
Not only does Aloe vera increase the production of collagen, but it also inhibits the natural or excessive breakdown of collagen in the body, making sure that your skin gets all the collagen it needs to look soft, supple and younger.

Avocados

Research has shown that the avocado, without doubt, is a superfood when it comes to reverse aging. Avocados also have anti-oxidant properties but what makes them more effective than other foods is that they can penetrate to the cellular level and exert their effects from there.

Mitochondria, present inside every cell are known as the energy factory of a cell. A cell will get all its energy to perform various functions from mitochondria. While generating this energy, mitochondria also produce some free radicals that harm the cells.





Avocados can limit the production of these free radicals and assist in reverse aging by limiting the body’s own by-products that would otherwise cause premature aging. The many nutrients found in avocado help in the rejuvenation of the skin, so that dull and damaged skin is replaced by healthier and younger looking skin.

Apples

As the saying goes, ‘An apple a day keeps the doctor away’. Well, an apple a day also keeps aging away. Apples are packed with vitamin C and vitamin B complexes. Apples work essentially for rejuvenation, regrowth, and ‘damage repair’ in many capacities.

Vitamin C is the best promoter of new cell synthesis so it helps new cells replace their exhausted and worn out old versions. This gives skin radiance and glows reducing the signs of aging. Apples are also full of anti-oxidants that help in reverse aging.

And then, of course, there is all that hormonal therapy that you could get involved in, but do you really to go there? Instead, follow a sensible age reversing protocol that will help you better control the way you age. These basics can not only prevent and reverse chronic illnesses but also the signs and symptoms of aging.

Brussel Sprouts

Brussel sprouts can rightfully be called the key to reverse aging. They have a very high ratio of vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants. They also have a lot of water in them. As mentioned throughout, free radicals are the real culprits behind natural aging and premature aging. Brussel sprouts hunt these down (quite literally) and eliminate them, preventing and greatly slowing down the process of aging. A large amount of water present in Brussel sprouts also helps maintain healthier, well-hydrated skin which in turn helps in reverse aging.

Fish and Fish Oils

An excellent source of protein, fish and fish oils are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. These are fatty acids that the body cannot produce on its own and they have to be acquired through the diet. Among the many reasons why the body needs these, one is to fight to age.

With age, the epidermis of the skin gets weaker, fragile and less elastic. This shows the signs of aging on our face in the form of wrinkles. Omega-3 fatty acids help the skin to maintain its biochemical integrity by keeping its water and nutrients in check. Fish and fish oil are also beneficial in fighting the aging effects of UV rays.
When taken in through diet, fish and fish oils help in overall protection and maintenance of health, which is important for reverse aging.

Nuts

All nuts help in reverse aging. They are full of healthy fat and omega-3 fatty acids that are essential in slowing down the signs of aging.

Nuts are also rich in vitamin E, which helps prevent cellular damage of any sort. As such, it aids in preventing skin cell damage that would otherwise show signs of aging.

Nuts are also anti-inflammatory and so they reduce the chances of many skin conditions like acne or eczema. These diseases exhaust the skin and make it age much faster than normal.

Consuming nuts can be a good way to avoid this and in turn, achieve the goal of reverse aging.

And last but not least DRINK WATER!
