If a person wants not only to maintain a great figure, but also to be healthy and live as long as possible, then it is not enough to just get rid of bad habits. Special attention should be paid to the diet.

The state of a person’s immune system depends on the products that they choose.

In addition, there is a possibility to prolong life.

As experts from Columbia University noted, it is necessary to reduce the number of calories in the diet.

Scientists conducted an experiment in which about 200 women and men took part

The study found that it is useful to reduce the amount of calories consumed by 25 percent. This solution will help slow down the rate of aging.

The volunteers were divided into teams. The experimental group was given a calorie restriction, while the control group ate as usual.

As a result, it turned out that the rate of aging of people from the experimental group slowed down by 2-3%.

Experts associate this with a 10-15 percent reduction in mortality risk and a reduction in the risk of certain diseases. We are talking about heart and vascular diseases, as well as dementia and stroke.
