Being a parent is the destiny of every human being and can not be avoided. What can be done is to slow the aging occurs mainly early. How to live healthy lifestyles by improving their diet? Dr. dr. Saptawati Bardosono, MSc, head of the doctoral study program, Faculty of Medicine University of Indonesia, said the diet should be implemented to avoid premature aging is to reduce the intake of macro nutrients. “The old man had no need of macro nutrients. Because the function of macro nutrients for growth, parents already do not need it,” he said in Jakarta on Tuesday (25 / 8).
Macro nutrients in question are a calorie. He said adult caloric needs only ranges 1700-1900 range. “Happens to avoid foods that contain lots of calories,” he suggested. He added, though the macro nutrient intake is reduced, intake of micronutrients should be added. The older, the more your body needs micronutrients such as zinc and selenium. Both also serve as a useful antioxidant for cell regeneration. Micro nutrients can be obtained from vegetables and fruits. Legumes such as soybeans are also efficacious to avoid premature aging.
In addition to micronutrients, proteins remain to be consumed. Proteins are useful for replacing cells that have been worn. 30 years of age is the right time to do early aging prevention. Because at that age, a person is no longer experience physical development. He admitted, contrast with hormone injections that result can be seen directly, it takes a long time to see results.
However, prevention of premature aging by adjusting the diet is more secure. “Injecting the hormone is not natural, a human engineering,” he said. He said that injecting these hormones can interfere with the existing hormok cycle in the body. And it can be dangerous. “The food effect is slow, but does not alter the system in the body,” he said.
As for supplements, he said it can help prevent premature aging. But the price of expensive supplements, so rarely lasting uses these supplements. “Expensive supplements, fear not continue. The older most people do not have the money. So better to eat the right foods,” he said.
