WELLNESS HEALTHY LIVING: Food For Every Age 20S, 30S, 40S, 50+ Words by Amenna Dayo It’s common sense that food is what ultimately keeps you strong, healthy, and functioning at peak performance for your best life ever. But what you ate in your twenties may not be what your body needs as you hit your thirties, forties, and fifties. From hormonal changes to bone density, things change from one decade to the next—and that’s putting it lightly. Learning how to feed your body properly as you grow older can prevent diseases and other unnecessary complications from arising. The goal here is to live a long, happy, and healthy life, which is why we’ve identified the dietary building blocks to help you age well, one decade at a time! And after you learn what to turn to, make sure you steer clear of these 20 Foods That Age You 20 Years! The 20S - Foods That Are Best For Individuals In This Age Range Include: Protein: From chicken to steak, protein is an essential building block. When you’re in your twenties, you’re still growing and often burning the candle at both ends. Complex Carbohydrates: Complex carbohydrates like sweet potatoes, quinoa, and brown rice are great for sustainable energy, especially in your twenties when you’re super active. sweet potaotes Nuts and Seeds: These foods come packed with everything you need, from vitamin A to zinc. Plus, there’s a healthy dose of antioxidants, fats, protein, and phytonutrients. nuts & seeds 20 s Calcium-Rich Foods: Calcium-rich foods include sesame seeds, dark leafy greens, oranges, broccoli, and calcium-fortified foods like cereal and bread. bread Hormone- Balancing Foods: Boosting your diet with foods that balance your hormones and yoghurt keep you hydrated can make sure you glow and prevent blemishes. I recommend foods like blueberries, yoghurt, walnuts, and oatmeal. Liver Cleansers: Cleansing the liver with lemon juice, garlic, and onions can go a long way with keeping you healthy in the long run, despite the desire to enjoy the parties 32 www.glamsquadmagazine.com
WELLNESS 30 s The 30s - Foods that are best for individuals in this age range include: Super Foods: Superfoods are essential, especially olive oil. They’re rich in polyphenols, which are powerful brain-protective antioxidants. Coconut oil, wild salmon, blueberries, turmeric, eggs, dandelion greens, and walnuts are all just the shortlist that yields peak performance benefits. coconut oil Vitamin E: Avocados and pine nuts are rich in vitamin E, which is vital for reproduction; they increase male fertility and reduce miscarriages because they help regulate the menstrual cycle. avocados eggs Iron: You need iron to have healthy red blood cells; without it, you can become anaemic and feel tired all the time. You need foods such as dried beans, eggs, yolks, liver, lean red meat, poultry, salmon, tuna, oysters, almonds, and whole grains. Antioxidants: To keep this natural ageing process as slow as possible, eat tons of antioxidants. Berries, tropical fruit, colourful vegetables, and green leafy vegetables are among the most antioxidantrich foods you could grab to look and feel youthful. Fatty Fish and Eggs: Foods that can promote the maintenance of fish balanced hormones are essential. Fatty fish and eggs filled with healthy fats and vitamin D, both of which can help boost your hormones. Veggies: Eat lots of colourful veggies to ensure your bodies can still handle issues relating to high cortisol levels and fat storage from stress. vegetables Folic Acid: Carol Cottrill, a nutritional consultant and author, recommends low-sugar fortified cereal, as they offer iron and folic acid in one bowl. (For lunch, have some leafy greens, which are full of folic acid and antioxidants!) lemon Low-Fat Dairy: The bottom line is you start losing bone mass after 35—so you must consume enough calcium. I recommend low-fat choices like milk, cheese, yoghurt and cottage cheese. cheese www.glamsquadmagazine.com 33
