The doctor told how to prolong your life with food

Nutritionist Ginsburg recommended eating 20% ​​less to prolong your life

Doctor of Medical Sciences, nutritionist and psychotherapist Mikhail Ginzburg recommended subscribers of your blog on Yandex. Zen diet for life extension.

“Life expectancy also depends on nutrition,” he said.

To live longer, he says, you need to eat 20% less than usual, as well as reduce the amount of foods with a high glycemic index.

Also, as Ginzburg noted, anti-aging nutrition should be preferred.

According to the doctor, aging is “a sluggish manifestation of inflammation that uncouples the cells of the body.”

People who want to prolong their lives need to reduce their consumption of trans fats and sunflower oil, thereby reducing the inflammatory properties of food and its calorie content.

In addition, it is necessary to reduce the number of foods with a high glycemic index – “so as not to irritate insulin.” These include sugar, as well as foods containing sugar and fast carbohydrates: potatoes, rice, white bread and others.

The consumption of complex carbohydrates – coarse bread, buckwheat and oatmeal – should, on the contrary, be increased. This just increases the anti-inflammatory properties of food, “because it brings more dietary fiber, lengthens the period of satiety after eating, and reduces the total daily calorie content,” said the nutritionist.

Also, the specialist advises to reduce portions, drink a glass of water before meals, eat less meat products, and replace them with sea fish and lean chicken.

Vegetables, he says, should be eaten at every meal. Sour-milk drinks – a couple of times a day. And do not forget about fruits, berries, nuts, herbs and oriental spices.

And in addition to nutrition, physical activity is needed – at least 30 minutes a day of walking.

Ginzburg also advised to get enough sleep, be less nervous, enjoy life and love your loved ones.
