If you want to be younger, you have to know how to eat properly. We can not prevent the passing of time, but what we can do is to make the "real age" of our body--"physiological age" much younger. Recently, an American website called as "Real Age" published the latest findings of the foods which can help make people much younger.

"The difference in the structure of the diets can make people 13 years older or 14 years younger than their real age", the director of the U.S. Science Advisory Board Director of Real Age, Mike Rollsen said. Under the leadership of Rollsen, American physicians, epidemiologists and nutrition experts formed a team, and carried out researches on the regularities about how the diet, exercise and living habits will affect people's physical age and the risk of suffering from certain diseases. They obtained the following results from their researches:

First, eat less oil--make you 6 years younger. Long-term eating too much oil may cause a series of diseases such as hyperlipidemia, fatty liver, atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease and cholecystitis.

Second, eat breakfast--make you 1.1 years younger. Breakfast is very helpful in balancing the nutritional intake, reducing the fluctuation of blood sugar, and controlling the appetite at lunch. At the same time, eating breakfast can improve the metabolism of human body during the whole day, and make people more energetic.

Third, eat at least 5 kinds of dark-colored vegetables every day--make you 2 years younger. Vegetables are rich in minerals and vitamins, especially dark-colored vegetables. They include chlorophyll, carotene, lycopene and anthocyanin, which all have antioxidative and anti-aging effects.

Fourth, eat 140 grams of nuts every week--make you 1.5 years younger. Apart from the high content of protein and fat, nuts also contain a lot of vitamin E, folic acid, magnesium, potassium, unsaturated fatty acids and dietary fiber, which are all beneficial for health. But you should be careful not to eat too much of them.

Fifth, eat fish 3 times a week--make you 1.5 years younger. The protein in fish is easy to be absorbed by the body. In addition, fish is also rich in fat-soluble vitamins, minerals and unsaturated fatty acids, which are particularly beneficial for health.

Sixth, eat coarse food grains 5 times a week--make you 1 year younger. Cereal food is rich in carbohydrates, so it is the basis of the diet. However, coarse food grains contain much more minerals, dietary fiber and vitamins than refined grains. Therefore, they are much healthier to human body.
