Diet and Longevity
Over two millennia ago, Hippocrates stated, "Let your food be your medicine." Food may also constitute the key to longevity.
Based on diets of people noted for their longevity, a superfood should have these criteria:
- High antioxidant activity. The most accepted standard for antioxidant activity is known as ORAC.
A broader test known as S-ORAC measures the most common free radical, superoxide.
- Be rich in vitamins and minerals.
- Consist of whole foods, not fragmented nutrients.
- Combat condida and yeast infections of the gastrointestinal track.
- Low glycemic index. It should not stimulate blood sugar levels and should be safe for diabetics.
- Be both immune supporting and anti-inflammatory.
This is very difficult to achieve as most immune-stimulants tend to incite inflammation.
- Create a synergy of phytochemicals.
Examples of this would be the proper mineral ratios and quercetin to ellagic acid ratios.
- Be manufactured to maximize bioactivity. This means minimal heat and chemical processing should be used.
- Have good palatability. Tastes GREAT...which is important to maximizing compliance. If a formula is not appealing, it will not be consumed regularly.
