The older we get the more we desire to slow time and age better and more gracefully. Numerous individuals have claimed that this is indeed possible through adherence to an anti aging diet. In contrast to this claim, there are factors in addition to diet that influence how well–or not!–we age.

Does ones diet alone influence aging? It is our intent to provide an easy to understand and balanced overview of topics related to anti aging diets. Further, we wish to point you to several additional factors that must be added to ones daily diet to slow the aging process.

THREE ANTI AGING DIET PLANS:
Based on the experimental work done since 1934, some people have adopted an anti aging diet based on caloric restriction (~25% decrease in caloric intake) . Such diets include the Okinawa diet, the CRON-diet, and the intermediate fasting diet. Central to these diets are high nutrition, low caloric foods, such as leafy greens, fruits, and vegetables.
-The Okinawa diet is based on the diet of the people from the islands of Ryūkyū (Okinawa is the largest island).
-The CRON-diet (Caloric Restriction with Optimal Nutrition) is based on the work from Biosphere 2 and Roy Walford.
-intermediate fasting diets cycle between food and fasting to achieve caloric restriction.

YOUR DIET MUST INCLUDE VITAMINS AND SUPPLEMENTS:
There are numerous vitamins, supplements, and micro nutrients that are believed to be important to longevity and health. More importantly, however, they are important in any caloric restriction diet to ensure that sufficient nutrition is provided to your body. Your best bet if you wish to provide your body with the right building blocks is a supplement containing all the vitamins, minerals, and micro nutrients that you need. In addition to this, supplements such as hGH, DHEA, and Resveratrol are considered by many to extend lifespan. However, the anti aging effects of these factors are disputed by many others. There are, additionally, many other supplements touted to be important to health, such as green tea extract, CoQ10,estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, melatonin, and pregnenolone, just to name a few. Investigate carefully before you buy because that vast majority of claims are unsubstantiated.

THE IMPORTANT DIET OF EXERCISE:
While there is increasing hype about anti aging diets today, it is easy to forget the important role that exercise plays in any diet, let alone an anti aging diet. Your diet puts fuel into your body; your exercise burns it in a focused and productive manner to yield a leaner, fitter you. It is vital that each of us find an activity that fits us, and that we begin exercising today. In other words, your weekly routine needs to include a healthy diet of exercise.

SUMMING IT ALL UP:
What you eat plays a part in your longevity and the vast majority of us would do well to decrease how much we eat as described by one of the anti aging diets presented in this article. But the following items also need to be added to your daily diet:
-vitamins and supplements
-exercise
