Foodie Secrets to Aging Well

Centenarians have survived 21 recessions in their lifetime—and they didn’t get to age 100 by stuffing their faces with cheap, temporarily satisfying junk food. Prepare for a long and healthy life with my foodie secrets to aging well—no expensive anti-aging creams required!

As the creator and author of The 100 Year Lifestyle, a best-selling book and wellness system that enables people to make the most of their remaining years through a unique, total-life program that addresses health, diet, nutrition, exercise, mental agility, creativity, finances, friends and family, work, community, and achieving a sense of purpose, I’ve learned to look good and live long the natural way, and eat like a champ at the same time.

My foodie secrets to aging well include:

Embrace “brainberries”: full of antioxidants like Vitamins C and E, blueberries protect against cancer and aging, and can even enhance memory!

Become a Grocery Guru and check labels for 100 percent whole grain or 100 percent whole wheat rather than white, and use seasonings and spices rather than salt and sugar.

Get back to the basics and avoid pre-made meals with high-fructose syrup, sodium and artificial ingredients. Buying fresh ingredients can save money as well as keep you looking and feeling young.

Embark on a Superfood journey and fill your diet–and recipes—with wild salmon, broccoli, tomatoes, soy, oats, strawberries, cantaloupe, garlic, beans, oranges, pumpkin, spinach, bananas, turkey, bean, walnuts, yogurt and green tea.

Ditch the soda and practice natural mood- and energy-boosting tips such as standing up and shaking your hips from side to side when you’re feeling sluggish.
