5 Foods That Improve Life Expectancy



1. Fruits and Vegetables

They are comparatively low in calories and are also loaded with fiber and nutrients. Studies regularly indicate that diets with plenty of fruits and vegetables help people maintain a healthy weight and protect against cardiovascular disease.

2. Low-salt Nutrition

Researchers have recognized for years that less salt in the diet means lower blood pressure. Now, new evidence suggests that keeping blood pressure down may also protect brain cells and decrease the risk of age-related memory loss and even dementia.

3. Blueberries

Blueberries are stuffed with antioxidants that may keep us healthy. Researchers at the Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University in Boston, has found out that blueberries top the list in terms of their antioxidant activity when compared to 40 other fresh fruit and vegetables.

4. Tomatoes

Tomatoes are low in fat, high in fiber and a low-calorie source of many vitamins and they’re packed with lycopene, an antioxidant that gives them their red color and may also have a role to play in lowering the risk of cancer.

5. Calcium Rich Foods

Bone loss and osteoporosis are among the leading reasons for disability in later life. Once a person becomes disabled, their health often reduces in many other ways. Although some bone loss with age is certain to happen, the process can be slowed down by eating foods high in calcium and vitamin D which can also prevent disabling fractures.
