This week I am sharing an Anti-Ageing Superfood Salad Recipe to continue the theme from the last couple of weeks. Slowing down ageing can be done by what you eat and especially what you absorb. The more toxins you have, the higher the free radical damage, so the key is to make sure you are boosting your health with antioxidants each day.
Foods to Avoid
Eating foods high in sugar, refined carbohydrates, hormone-laden animal protein and dairy, and excessive alcohol all cause huge blood sugar fluctuations and can easily upset your toxic load.
Such disruptions can lead to the onset of fatigue, weight gain, wrinkles, grey hair and an overall feeling of being flat both mentally and physically. Best to eat clean & drink 2-3L of water each day and have one day a week with a free meal and a little alcohol if desired.
Superfoods to Support Longevity & Anti-Ageing
Eating more superfoods such as green leafy vegetables, beetroot, walnuts, pumpkin, sauerkraut, seaweed, flax seeds, and avocado can help you find your Va Va Voom.
I include these salad ingredients for myself and my three children as they help balance your immune system and support a healthy gut and mind-body balance. Great for the whole family to keep everyone mentally and physically strong!
I love this anti-ageing superfood salad, and I eat it regularly. It is important to adopt this lifestyle instead of just trying to avoid pain or symptoms as they arise with various.
