Nutrient-Dense Plant-Rich Diet for Longevity
A nutrient-dense diet for longevity should be low in starch and sugar, rich in good fats like avocados and nuts, and full of phytochemicals from colorful plant foods. It should focus on plant-rich foods, with three-quarters of the plate covered with colorful, non-starchy veggies. Organic and regenerative choices are preferable, along with whole food fats like nuts, seeds, avocados, and fatty fish. Animal protein is important for muscle building as we age, emphasizing the necessity of the right protein forms and amounts to maintain muscle mass for longevity.
