What we eat can cut the risk of developing chronic diseases that make us old before our time: high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity. Abundant scientific research has shown how important food is to healthy aging.
What is meant by “anti-aging”? It’s not a vague beauty term, its markers are radiant hair, skin, daily physical activity, a positive mindset and preventing chronic disease.
Fifty may be the new 40, but one biological fact does change over time: some nutrient demands do increase, so the importance of nutrient DENSE foods becomes more important for as we get older. Science-backed healthy eating plans, like the Mediterranean diet and the USDA’s MyPlate strategy, have this in common:
-
abundant colorful fruits and vegetables
-
lean protein (both animal and plant sources)
-
heart healthy, unsaturated fats
-
fiber-rich grains
-
low-fat dairy products (or equivalent).
-
limiting processed foods with added salts, sugars, fats, and calories

A Mediterranean diet enhanced with extra-virgin olive oil or extra servings of nuts lowered the risk of heart attacks and other cardiovascular events in people, study finds.
All roads lead to Rome when eating for heart health, a major study has found — or at least they point to the advantages of the Mediterranean diet for those at high risk for heart disease.
Researchers in Spain found that the Mediterranean diet supplemented with extra-virgin olive oil or nuts reduced incident of major cardiovascular events, according to a study published online today in the New England Journal of Medicine.
