Want To Live Longer? Try Adding These to Your Diet...
Dear Reader,
A new 14-year study confirms what many nutritionists, and others, have been saying all along... eating foods rich in antioxidants like veggies (and fruits too) helps the body fight off disease and might just prolong life.
Researchers found that those with the highest levels of alpha-carotene in their blood had a 39% lower risk of death from any cause (things like heart disease and cancer) than those who had the lowest levels.
Enjoying these good-for-you foods is a simple, natural thing you can do to keep your body healthy and disease free. Earlier work has shown us that eating more fruits and veggies is linked to a lower risk of disease; yet no research has been done on any of the specific carotenoids that might be involved.
Experts know that carotenoids are produced by both plants and microorganisms, and in the body act as antioxidants able to counter the damage done by free radicals and other harmful substances.
Alpha-carotene is one of this group of antioxidants, probably the most abundant in the typical Western diet. The other well-known members of the family are beta-carotene and lycopene.
Veggies such as the yellow orange variety like carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin and winter squash are good sources. Dark green vegetables like broccoli, green beans, green peas, spinach, turnip greens, collards and lettuce are other options. Some of the fruits high in this nutrient include tangerines, kumquats, cantaloupe, mangos, white grapefruits, apricots, raspberries and bananas.
In this study, the team looked at the relationship between blood levels of alpha-carotene and the risk of death in 15,318 participants over age 20 who took part in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey Follow-up Study. The subjects went through a medical examination and provided blood samples between the years 1988 to 1994, and were followed until the end of 2006.
Over the follow up period, 3,810 participants died, but the risk of dying was consistently lower in those with higher levels of alpha-carotene in their bloodstream.
What's more, as the blood levels went up, the protective effect did too. Higher levels of the antioxidant were also linked to a lower risk of dying from heart disease or cancer, as well as from any other cause.

Alpha-carotene is chemically similar to beta-carotene, but may actually be more
effective at protecting the cells of the brain, liver and skin.
You may need more of this beneficial nutrient if you smoke or regularly drink
too much alcohol or eat an extremely low fat diet. Some medical conditions like
pancreatic enzyme deficiency, Crohn's disease, celiac sprue, gall bladder disease,
liver disease, cystic fibrosis, or surgical removal of part or all of the stomach
can also cause deficits.
If you're thinking of getting the longevity benefits of this nutrient through
supplements, think again. While they are available (usually combined with beta-carotene),
the National Academy of Sciences does not recommend taking high dose carotenoid
supplements. Today there is no recommended dietary intake, with the Institute
of Medicine concluding that the evidence is not yet sufficient to support creating
a carotenoid intake level.
Natural sources are always best. Try for five or more servings of veggies (fruits,
too) as a completely natural way to get some impressive benefits for your body,
and perhaps live a longer, healthier life.
To your good health,
Kirsten Whittaker
