Researchers also said that fasting could also help live a longer, healthier life.
. "By adopting an approach based on over a century of research, we can begin to define a longevity diet that represents a solid foundation for nutritional recommendations and for future research."Lucia DeClerck spoke with FOX Television Stations about beating COVID-19 at 105 years old with prayer and a diet of gin-soaked raisins.
Data showed that the optimal diet appears to have moderate to high-carbohydrate intake from non-refined sources. Consumers should also have low but sufficient protein from mostly plant-based sources and enough plant-based fats that can provide 30% of energy needs. Consumers should also have no or very low red and processed meat.
Longo summed up the longevity diet as "Lots of legumes, whole grains, and vegetables; some fish; no red meat or processed meat and very low white meat; low sugar and refined grains; good levels of nuts and olive oil, and some dark chocolate." Researchers said that all meals should occur in an 11- to 12-hour period, which allows for a daily period of fasting in the remaining hours. They also add that a 5-day cycle of some sort of fasting every three to fourth months may reduce insulin resistance, blood pressure and other risk factors for individuals with increased disease risks.Researchers will now examine the longevity diet in a 500-person study that will take place in southern Italy.
"The longevity diet is not a dietary restriction intended to only cause weight loss but a lifestyle focused on slowing aging, which can complement standard healthcare and, taken as a preventative measure, will aid in avoiding morbidity and sustaining health into advanced age," he added.
