It is known that everything that we eat, one way or another affects the health and appearance. Some foods make us more young and healthy, while others are aging prematurely, and "selected" health, writes hronika.info.
The rate of aging affect mainly three processes: glycation of proteins (when glucose reacts with proteins, impairing their function), inflammation and oxidation. And it's not just about the external aging - wrinkling, for example, but also about the internal processes that prematurely wear out the bodies. And it is perhaps more important than appearance.
So, here are the main products, "helping" us to age prematurely
1. Wheat
Wheat contains a unique type of carbohydrates - amylopectin-A. It raises blood glucose levels even more than sugar. Therefore, all products made from wheat flour, contribute to a significant increase in the level of sugar than any other carbohydrate sources. And that, as a consequence, accelerates the aging process.
2. Corn
We have in mind not only the corn, but corn syrup, cereals, butter, cereal. corn-based products are also significantly raise blood sugar. The culprit is fructose, which affects the aging process is many times stronger than glucose.
Another negative maize quality - an excess of omega-6 fatty acids, capable of causing an imbalance in the body.
3. Sugar
Again talk about the dangers of sugar, probably already too much. It not only contributes to obesity and the occurrence of diabetes, but also is able to age you prematurely.
Sugar can be replaced with natural low-calorie sweeteners such as stevia. If it is impossible to live without sweets, then eat dark chocolate - the lesser of all the "sweet angry."
4. Vegetable oils
Yes, they are derived from natural products. But if you look, a heat treatment and the temperatures at which they are produced, the myth about the benefits disappear. Useful originally polyunsaturated fats by oxidation not only lose their positive properties, but also become a dangerous, resulting in serious inflammatory and oxidation processes.
Useful vegetable oils can only be regarded as olive, coconut and avocado oil.
