Anti-Aging..

 

*The humble tomato packs a mighty anti-aging punch, experts say. "Tomatoes have vitamin C, which helps build collagen and improve the appearance of wrinkles by making your skin look firmer," clinical dietitian Haley Robinson tells Piedmont Healthcare. "They also contain lycopene, which helps protect your skin from UV damage."

*Berries are good for your skin, cells, and brain. "Berries can fight off free radical cells and help regenerate new skin," Robinson says. "And the compounds in berries help reduce inflammation and oxidative damage, which are two things that have been associated with age-related memory deficit and motor function."

*Avocados are delicious, versatile, and nutritious. "Another superfood considered to be high in fat, but again, we are talking about the beneficial monounsaturated fat." Avocados are almost a complete meal in themselves, containing high levels of many vitamins, especially vitamins E and C."

*"Oily fish, such as salmon, mackerel, tuna and sardines are top sources of Omega-3 fatty acids," says the American Cancer Fund. "These are absolutely the 'in' nutrients of the moment, said to help lower the risk of blood clots, and the build up of fatty deposits on arteries."
