The phenomenon of aging is a natural process for every human being, as it cannot be avoided, but it can be slowed down through measures that start with changing the system and methods of nutrition and the materials that are eaten in life in general.
And the Russian expert and nutritionist, Elena Tikhomirova, revealed to “Sputnik” agency about the products that cause people to age prematurely.
According to the expert, sweets and other products that contain fast carbohydrates are one of the most important causes of human aging, as they quickly enter the bloodstream and cause spikes in insulin levels, which negatively affects the body.
“Salty foods also contribute to aging, as they cause bloating, in addition to alcohol,” the expert added.
She considered that to maintain youth, it is useful to cook at home more often, because food in restaurants is often saltier to improve the taste.
“A proper diet, drinking plenty of water, regular exercise and good sleep are the main rules to follow in order to stop aging,” Tikhomerova concluded.
