If we type these words, it means that we have already repeatedly observed those four white hairs that peek out from the temples and that above all we are looking for something that allows us to move forward with the years in a serene and conscious way .
Something that makes us feel good and healthy even from a dietary point of view and at the same time slows down the action of free radicals, allowing us to continue to practice correct physical activity even further with the years.
If you also want to know about the little secrets of the time, even if you haven't reached the infamous third age yet, here are some practical tips that allow you to progress day after day, making fun of the passing of time!
Anti-aging food
Counteracting the signs of aging with natural cures also means refreshing the fridge and dispensing with natural antioxidant remedies that we take directly from food.
The advice is therefore to consume lots of fresh and seasonal vegetables, at least three portions a day, lots of natural water and antioxidant fruit.
Yes therefore to kale kale and black cabbage, to pomegranates, red fruits and blueberries, lemon, avocado and citrus fruits, broccoli, beetroot and cauliflower, grapes, tomatoes, carrots and onions ; reward yourself with a centrifuge or extractor and try a new antioxidant centrifuge every now and then.
Cook yourself lightly, steamed and baked, preferring high-fiber, whole-grain or semi-whole-grain foods, enjoy making bread with sourdough.
It is also good:
- season lightly, with cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil
- consume oilseeds and dried fruit
- get vitaminized as naturally as possible, avoiding ready-made industrial products full of preservatives, sausages and refined foods
- avoid alcohol, while a glass of red wine is sometimes allowed
- drink herbal teas, green tea and barley coffee
- for desserts, dark chocolate green light, but do not overdo it!
Natural nutrition for the third age
Physical activity to stay young
Here are some of the most recommended physical activities even by doctors.
- Walk at least half an hour a day using good shoes or indulge in swimming and yoga once a week.
- Pedal happily if you can.
In fact, there is a very close connection between the well-being of the various systems of the body - lymphatic, cardio-circulatory, respiratory - and the youth of the body and mind.
The production of endorphins and the consequent good functioning of the organism increase happiness and with it the health in totality, eliminating depression and fats.
The spirit never gets old
Meditate, meditate, meditate. Give yourself a break to talk to your spirit, in the way you prefer, praying, making silence, singing or reciting mantra ; welcome therefore every doubt, concern, uncertainty.
Then share it with friends, talk about it, take long walks in the middle of nature or turn it all into a loud and big laugh .
Finding a way and time to reconcile with oneself is also a real tonic for the mind and the heart.
Always learn new things
In this regard, do not go back on the old and known, do not just fix yourself on the negative things that happen, but, and this applies to any age, be curious, explore and try to learn new things, give yourself stimuli, help those in need, attend a new course or chat with grandchildren.
Do that thing you never thought you would do, paint, sing, dance faraway dances: new worlds will open up on the horizon, you will meet new people, at the same time removing laziness and boredom.
