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

Are there depression-fighting foods? A growing body of research says yes.
Recent studies have found evidence that foods such as cold-water fish (salmon, sardines, and tuna, for example), walnuts, and canola oil may be especially beneficial in fighting depression, thanks to an abundance of omega-3 fatty acids. This may help explain why Scandinavian and Asian countries, which boast fish-rich diets, also have lower rates of depression.
