Boosting Metabolism: Enhancing Longevity and Mind-Body Connection through Intuitive Eating
- As we strive for longevity, our muscle mass changes, leading to decreased calorie burn and less efficient food processing.
- Adjusting our dietary habits and prioritizing the mind-body connection is crucial.
- Reassess nutrition and improve the quality of meals, consuming higher quantities of high-quality nutrients.
- After 55, the need for zinc and calcium dramatically increases.
Bodily Functions Impacted by Time:
- Insulin synthesis becomes less efficient, affecting sugar absorption.
- Excessive consumption of “simple” sugars or high-glycemic index foods can lead to cravings and abdominal weight gain.
- Higher intake of saturated and trans fats contributes to abdominal weight gain.
Tips for Longevity and Mind-Body Connection:
-
Eat for Strength:
- Follow a balanced diet with vegetables, poultry, fish, fruits, dairy, and whole grains.
- These foods contribute to strength, balance, and flexibility.
-
Supplement Nutritional Gaps:
- Consider trusted brand supplements to fill any nutritional gaps.
- Polyphenols from grapes and green tea, turmeric, and curcumin improve metabolism.
-
Stay Active:
- Engage in daily walks to improve physical and social well-being.
- Carry light shopping bags to enhance core strength, muscle mass, and balance.
- Join a gym, take exercise or dance classes, or practice Tai Chi for a stronger mind-body connection.
Longevity Considerations:
- Aging organs and reduced efficiency can lead to conditions such as diabetes and increased heart disease risk.
- Muscle mass loss and slower metabolism occur naturally, resulting in abdominal fat gain.
- Excessive muscle mass loss can lead to falls, injuries, and decreased independence.
