Eating Fewer Calories Can Help You Live Longer

Researchers have concluded that a calorie-restricted diet does help us live longer, healthier lives. But age, diet, and sex must all be factored in to realize the full benefits of lower caloric intake.

I wrote about this in a post last year. It's been proven over and over, in many different studies, that over indulging in high-calorie foods can shorten your life.

This is just one more reason why we should be eating fresh foods and not eat man-made foods. Two-thirds of all the food we eat every day should be fruits and vegetables. We should not be drinking anything with calories including milk or any other dairy. As a matter of fact, when you're trying to lose fat, you shouldn't eat or drink any dairy. Some doctors will say that plain Greek yogurt is the only exception.

If you stick to eating fresh and stop drinking calories, cutting back or avoid red meat and any type of tube meat, you shouldn't have to count calories. Fresh fruits and vegetables are low in calories. You can eat white meat chicken or turkey and seafood. Stay away from starchy vegetables at the beginning but after a few weeks, potatoes and corn in moderation are okay.

Following this type of diet should cut your calories to less than 2000 a day and over a couple of months you should see results. Don't worry about the scale too much, measure your waist, hips, and thighs to see if your diet is working. 

If you like to follow a diet program, the DASH diet might be for you. This is the meal plan that has won an award again this year for the best and healthiest diet of 2016. Get some information on this diet from the internet and if you think this is for you then try it a few months. Changing your diet won't give you quick results. This diet doesn't restrict food. You won't be hungry, but it is a diet of fresh foods. If you're use to processed foods, you will have food cravings for a couple weeks. This diet doesn't have sugar in the food so your body will crave sugar for a while. After a week or so the cravings will go away. It's not a quick weight loss plan so be patient until your body adjusts to your new diet.

You'll become a happier, healthier person.
