Antiaging Foods

Live a longer, healthier life with these key ingredients.

BRAIN FOOD

Antioxidants in certain fruit and spices, and omega-3 fatty acids in some nuts (walnuts) and oils (flax) may curb inflammation linked with age-related dementia. Smart choice.

Best brain foods: blueberries, curry powder, pomegranate juice, walnuts 

CANCER PREVENTER

You're never too young to guard against this killer. Vitamin C (in berries, peppers) may cut the risk for several cancers, as can antioxidants in red wine, black tea and onions.
Best cancer preventers: baby spinach, blueberries, brewed black tea, dried cherries, kale, kiwifruit, lemons, marinara sauce, onion, poblano peppers, red wine, sesame seeds, strawberries

Blueberries

ENERGY SOURCES

Who doesn't need more pep? Iron in lean proteins and some plants fuels organs and tissues so they function smoothly. We digest whole grains slowly, which promotes long-term energy.
Best energy sources: baby spinach, bulgur wheat, chicken, marinara sauce, quinoa, raisins

Baby Spinach

PAIN RELIEVER
Vitamin E in almonds and more may reduce muscle damage during a workout, so getting plenty can help you make it to the gym tomorrow. That's a good thing, because exercise is vital to longevity.
Best pain relievers: almonds, baby spinach, marinara sauce

Almonds

SKIN SMOOTHER
Fruit and veggies that contain lycopene and beta-carotene help block UV rays to thwart aging. And vitamin C stimulates the production of collagen, helping prevent fine lines.
Best skin smoothers: baby spinach, blueberries, dried cherries, kale, kiwifruit, lemon, marinara sauce, poblano pepper, strawberries, walnuts

Strawberries

BODY SLIMMER
Foods high in fiber or protein keep you satiated, so you're less likely to overeat later. Fiber and cinnamon also help regulate blood sugar levels, preventing weight gain and obesity-related illness.
Best body slimmers: almonds, baby spinach, black beans, blueberries, bulgur wheat, cinnamon, kale, nonfat plain Greek yogurt, pistachios, quinoa, raisins, walnuts

Kale
