What product should be in the diet of those who are already 40 years old: a doctor's answer
As you age, you should take your health more seriously.
It is important to remember about a healthy lifestyle, the negative consequences of bad habits and the benefits of physical activity.
But also pay special attention to nutrition so that the body receives all the necessary vitamins and minerals.
Nutritionist Liza Afinskaya spoke about this in more detail on her Telegram channel.
As experts point out, it is necessary to take the time to think about protecting bones. Vitamin K, boron, magnesium, potassium and polyphenols are important for this.
All these elements can be found in prunes. You can also give preference to raisins, dried apricots, dried mango, if there are no contraindications.
As Afinskaya emphasized with reference to researchers, you can eat up to 5-6 prunes a day to protect yourself from bone loss. If you double the norm, you can increase bone mass.
The benefits of eating prunes do not end there. As the doctor noted, such a product can improve bowel function, and also helps reduce cholesterol levels and the risk of developing gastrointestinal diseases.
