Anti Aging Diet

Can an Anti Aging Diet help?

The Anti Aging Diet says that if you restrict your calorie intake you can slow down the aging process. I am not sure how this would work; as I was always under the impression it was what you ate, not how much.

From what the Anti Aging Diet claims, those who restrict the number of calories are extending the length of their lifespan.

Most of these results are from tests performed on animals. I am not sure that the results would be the same on humans. I decided to look further into the idea of calorie restriction as a way to longevity.

When you are going to begin the Anti Aging Diet, you will want to start very slow. There is no jumping into this diet plan. The reason behind this is that this diet is life long, not a quick fix to lose 10 pounds in 4 days.

What you are looking for is about a pound a week. More than two pounds in a week is not recommended and you really need to be careful. Eventually you will end up eating only 1700-1800 per day, depending on your age, sex, activity level, and current weight.

To begin you will want to cut back 100 or so calories per week to adjust to the new plan. Once on the right calorie amount that is right for you, you should begin to see some weight loss. With only restricting your diet to 1700-1800 calories, you will eventually stop losing weight and just maintain.

The types of foods to focus on are foods that are high in antioxidants. Antioxidants help eliminate free radicals and other potentially damaging molecules from our bodies. This keeps the body from prematurely aging.

The Anti Aging Diet allows us to continuously take in high amounts of these antioxidant rich foods and keeps us looking and feeling young. Other types of foods are those rich in anti-inflammatory properties. As we age our cells are prone to inflammation, which can ultimately lead to many diseases.

The reason they call this diet a calorie restriction is that all these foods are low in calories. Most are fish and vegetables. Therefore, being on this diet would also be similar to being on a low carbohydrate or high lean protein and fiber diet.

While I am not sure if one can thwart off aging by diet alone, the Anti Aging Diet is a healthy way to live. Eating low fat, low refined sugar and processed foods, and lean meats is always a great way to keep trim and stay healthy. I would completely recommend this diet as a way of life for anyone trying to eat better over all.

The diet is very easy to follow and the actual calorie restriction is nothing like many other more formal low calorie diets that leave you starving. This is a great diet to live by. The fact that it can delay the aging process or that it claims to, is just an added bonus.
