A few foods and beverages contain potent substances called phytonutrients that some trust are capable of unlocking the key to longevity. Phytonutrients, which are members of the antioxidant family, gobble up "free radicals" -- that play a role in the onset of illnesses like heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, and Alzheimer's.

As we age, we get more susceptible to the long-term effects of oxidative stress and inflammation on the cellular level. The theory is that antioxidants and additional age-defying compounds help cells ward off damage from free radicals and downplay the affect of aging.

Beyond antioxidants, some other compounds in foods may impact aging. They may be classified according to their impact on inflammation at the cellular level, experts state.

All foods fit into 3 categories: pro-inflammatory, neutral, or anti-inflammatory.

You are able to help to slow aging at the cellular level by picking out foods that are anti-inflammatory and rich in antioxidants.

Age-related alterations might be reversed by consuming foods and beverages that are rich in an assortment of compounds, including antioxidants, and are anti-inflammatory, like cold-water fish and richly colored fruits and veggies.

On the other hand, foods classified as pro-inflammatory may speed up aging.

If we consume great amounts of saturated or trans fatty acids, sugars, and starches, insulin levels surge and trigger an anti-inflammatory reaction and speed up the aging process.
