All in all, you can see that the secret of staying young is basically the secret of staying healthy. And the secret of staying healthy is closely tied to proper nutrition. More and more researchers of the noble science of Gerontology come, in their quest for the secrets of aging, to the inevitable conclusion that the Fountain of Youth springs from vital nutrition.
It could be truthfully said that:
you are as young as your glands;
you areas young as your cells;
you are as young as your collagen;
you are as young as your enzymes and your digestive system;
you are as young as your arteries and your heart.
But in order to keep your glands and organs young, your colon free from decay and putrifaction, your collagen elastic and your cells healthy and vital, you have to feed your body with the highest quality vital nutrition, which contains all the essential nutrients necessary for the normal function of all these organs and tissues.
Of course, the state of your mind has a determining influence on your health, too. But even the state of your mind, your attitudes, your mental capacities—yes, even the strength of your moral fiber – all depend to a great extent on the quality of your nutrition. “Mens sana in corpore sano” said the old Romans, and this is just as true today. A sound mind can only dwell in a sound body.
The more we search for the secrets of aging the more we convinced that you cannot discuss the problems of premature aging without discussing the problems of nutrition.
Dr. Henry C. Sherman of Columbia University, one of I lie-greatest authorities on nutrition, has stated that not only can human life be extended, but also youthfulness can be preserved and the extended life span made more useful, by the right selection of foods.
Recently, the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society reported on research by a Hungarian scientist, who has found that malnutrition is a prime cause of premature aging.
