Drinking fruits and vegetables that are good for your body as juice is one of the easy ways to enjoy a variety of nutrients. Among them, making juice with ingredients rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals can also help slow down aging. However, when choosing juice, it is important to select 100% natural juice rather than those mainly made with fruit concentrates and added sugars.
Among many juices, I have summarized a health juice that can especially help slow down aging based on information from the American health information media 'Eat this, Not that'.
Pomegranate juice
Pomegranates are rich in antioxidants such as polyphenols, which can help reduce inflammation, prevent cancer, and lower blood pressure. Additionally, they are known to have a unique effect on aging cells in the body. After the age of 50, cells begin to struggle with mitochondrial regeneration, which directly affects muscle strength, and this can increase the risk of diseases such as Parkinson's. According to research, a compound called urolithin A found in pomegranates has been shown to reactivate mitochondria.
Carrots contain various antioxidants necessary for health as you age. First, they are rich in lutein, which is known to help improve eye and brain health. They also contain a large amount of beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A. According to a study published in the international journal 'Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention,' beta-carotene may also help reduce the risk of prostate cancer in young men.
△Bit Juice
Beet juice is also a beverage that can help slow down the aging process. According to a study published in the international journal 'Redox Biology,' participants who drank beet juice had a higher abundance of certain types of bacteria that support cognitive and vascular health compared to the placebo group. Participants in the beet juice group also experienced a decrease in blood pressure levels. These results are attributed to the high concentration of nitrates found in beets. Nitrates help maintain healthy blood vessels and also aid in improving cognitive function. According to the medical journal 'Journal of Human Hypertension,' these effects are more pronounced when consumed as juice rather than in cooked form.
Grapefruit juice
Pink grapefruit contains a carotenoid compound called lycopene. Lycopene is a component also found in tomatoes and watermelons, and it is known to provide various health benefits and improve skin appearance. In fact, a study published in 'Food Science & Nutrition' revealed that lycopene has a 'regenerative' effect on the skin of middle-aged participants. Another study published in the 'American Journal of Nutrition' found that lycopene can lower LDL cholesterol, known as bad cholesterol, and increase HDL cholesterol, the good cholesterol. As the risk of heart disease increases with age, managing cholesterol levels after middle age is particularly important.
△Milssak Juice
Milssak contains vitamin C and E, as well as flavonoids. It is also very rich in chlorophyll. Chlorophyll has been found to have antioxidant properties and chemical protective effects, meaning it can help protect the body from the side effects of chemotherapy. This is because it has the ability to inhibit the bioavailability of carcinogens in the body.
