Everything you need to know about dietary fiber (Walla system!)
It is no secret that many are trying to find the fountain of youth and along the way invest a lot of energy and money in creams with miracle promises, stretching and facial injections and more.
All this is done when in practice we have powerful anti-aging sources that we can get from the neighborhood vegetable and straight to the plate.
In our daily routine we are exposed to air pollution, are under stress and feed on sugars, oxidized and fried oils and fast foods that produce free radicals that damage the body's cells and disrupt their ability to put nutrients and fluids into them, while removing toxins.
In addition, as the years go by, the skin becomes less rich in fluids and thus falls and wrinkles are formed - the skin looks dry and not vital and the truth is that the brain cells are no longer what they used to be.

Wonderful substances called antioxidants found in basic foods that we can find in our natural environment can protect and slow down these damages and produce animals and freshness, inside and out.
Here are some foods that will help you look and feel fresh and slow down the aging process:
Berries and red-purple fruits
Highest antioxidant index.

Strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and also pomegranate, red plum and acai are some of the most powerful fruits and should be eaten fresh or frozen.
In addition, it is highly recommended to consume them without sugar which binds proteins and impairs cell function.
Purple fruits are considered to be those with the highest antioxidant index - called orac units - from which it is advisable to consume a minimum of 1,000-2,000 units per day.
Berries contain thousands of such antioxidants per 100 grams.
In addition, these are fruits with a relatively low glycemic index.
This means that they lower blood sugar levels less and protect against the damage of sugar.
Lettuce, spice leaves and green leaves
It is especially important to buy organic.

Due to the high absorption of toxins from sprays, it is advisable to buy these leafy vegetables from organic crops.
Green leaves have two special phytochemicals called lutein and chlorophyll.
Lutein is known as the "inner sunglasses" and specifically protects the eye from degeneration and sun damage (a phenomenon that is mostly common in the elderly).
Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant that has the ability to protect and eliminate toxins from the body and even accelerate the healing of scars and wounds.
cocoa
Eat it like this.

So true, this is not the milk chocolate you are familiar with, but cocoa-based chocolate that has not been roasted and is full of antioxidants has some important benefits.
Cocoa is one of the richest ingredients in orac units.
If you want it to work you should avoid sugar additives, preservatives and refined oils.
As mentioned, at least the chocolate you know.
Spices
Add much beyond taste.

If spices seem to be something marginal in the nutritional value of the meal then know that cinnamon, tarragon, black pepper and chili, oregano and seasoning with ginger root or fresh turmeric add far beyond the flavor.
You should consume them fresh and store in the freezer.
Foods with Vitamin C.
The vitamin tends to fade.

We know it from winter and use it to prevent disease, but this vitamin found in broccoli, squash, tomatoes, guavas, cabbage, spinach, kiwi and more - is responsible for over 300 biological processes in the body, and in addition to neutralizing free radicals is also a hormonal balance.
It is important to know that the vitamin tends to fade so we get it mainly from consuming fresh vegetables and fruits.
Walnuts (not roasted)
Protect the brain, but not only.

The walnut king, which is similar in shape to the brain, does protect against the degeneration of this organ cell, and not only that.
It contains omega 3, an antilactic fatty acid, which moisturizes the body's cells, improves the appearance of the skin and even the mood and concentration.
Incorporate all of these in the menu?
You should enrich your plate every time with something new.
In addition it is important to remember to drink enough fluids to moisturize the skin, balance stress levels and try to avoid consuming sugars and preservatives, stabilizers and flavorings that disrupt the metabolism in the body cells.
