ANTI AGING FOODS......the nature provides.

Hi rai

In my thread ANTI AGING FOODS read the typing mistake 4 & 5 as 6. Omega - 6 fatty acid rich foods are avocado, eggs, cereals, nuts, poultry, whole-grain breads, soyabean oil, corn oil, pumpkin seeds, acai berry etc. A healthy diet should contain a balance of omega - 3 acids and omega - 6 fatty acids. They help produce cell membranes with a high degree of fluidity, without which cells lose their ability to hold water and vital nutrients.

Omega - 9 fatty acids, unlike omega - 3 and omega -6 fatty acids are not classed as essential fatty acids because they can be created by human body from unsaturated fat.

 

Hi Nitha

Rice, brown rice, grains and sprouted seeds become more alkaline in the process of sprouting. When soaked the acidic nature changes into alkaline food source.

A healthy diet is alkaline in effect (fruits, rice, millet, lima beans, soy, lentils, millet, cucumber, onion, carrot, cauliflower, barley, sprouts, tomato, lime, watermelon, cumin seeds, almonds etc.), while an unhealthy diet is acidic in effect (sugar, white breads, nuts, meats, eggs etc.)

 

Hi Nitha

Totally deleting eggs and nuts from your diet would not be advisable. If you have the habit of taking them in large quantity, simply take them moderately..

One egg contains 6 grams of high quality protein and 9 essential amino acids. Eggs are one of the only foods that contain naturally occurring vitamin D gives rise to strong and healthy bones. Zinc in the eggs aids in normal function of the immune system. The antioxidant called selenium in the eggs curbs damage caused by unstrained oxidation in the body, prevents blood clots, heart attacks and strokes etc.

Nuts are one of the best plant sources of protein.. Nuts are rich in vitamin E, selenium, fiber, antioxidants, plant sterols and omega - 3 fats which lover LDL cholesterol.
