without an alarm clock. Sleep deprivation is the number one and most the
frequently overlook cause of premature aging.

Cut down calorie intake by 30%. Eat a
modified Mediterranean
diet to 70% full with each meal, and take desserts
only at lunch. Avoid
low
fat diets. Your body automatically readjust itself to a lower rate of
metabolism and become more efficient in its use of energy as you eat less. You
will find more energy after the adjustment period. In addition,
growth
hormone release is increased with
calorie
restriction. |
| Increase your
green leafy vegetables intake by 40%.

10-15 servings a day .They are high in fibers,
minerals, antioxidants
and low in calories. They also boost the

the number one killer. Stay
with vegetables that are grown above the ground such as
Broccoli and
tomato
and avoid underground vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and yams. |

 |
Reduce your
stress by 50% .
Stress kills. It elevates
blood
pressure, risk
of heart attack , an cortisol, a pro-aging hormone. The
risk of

plan like meditation, deep breathing exercises,
tai chi,
yoga, music appreciation,
shopping, or a warm bath. |

pure filtered
water
consumption by 60%. Most of us are
dehydrated
and not aware.

water is the next best. Avoid
tap
water. Start the morning with 2 full glasses of warm water

your body. Limit your anti-aging
fluid to water and carry a water bottle around with you during the day. Many
are not aware that one of the most common cause of high blood pressure and
gastric pain is dehydration. |

fiber.

milk,
coffee
and tea
as much as possible. |

intake by 80%. Trans-fat is commonly found in shortening used to make
French fries and commercially prepared fast foods and cookies. It is the number
one cause of
cardiovascular
disease. Stay with

fat such as olive oil
. Butter
is better than
margarine. Moderate consumption of
saturated
fat (30% of diet) from
meat
or consuming 1 egg a day will not cause a marked increase blood
cholesterol
level, but taking trans-fat
will. |
 |
 |
Reduce refined
