(NaturalNews) Naturally sourced foods provide considerable protection against many of the leading chronic diseases that take the lives of millions worldwide each year. Researchers are able to demonstrate the influence of food on our genome as a single unhealthy meal can negatively impact hundreds of individual genes. Processed foods packed with sugar, refined carbohydrates and hydrogenated fats lead to a continual state of inflammation throughout our body. Metabolic syndrome, diabetes, heart disease and Alzheimer`s disease are all fueled by the release of dangerous chemical messengers that are the result of inflammation. Small changes in diet over a short period of time have been shown to significantly lower the risk of disease and improve quality of life.
Combination of Natural Foods Shown to Boost Health Biomarkers The results of a study performed at Lund University in Sweden underscore the importance of healthy food combinations and reduced disease risk. The research focused on forty-four adults aged 50 to 75 who were fed a diet that included high antioxidant, low glycemic sources including oily fish, barley, blueberries, almonds, cinnamon, vinegar and a high fiber wholegrain bread for a period of 4 weeks.
Amazing Improvements in Health After 30 Days Blood samples taken at the end of the test period showed that diet exerted a powerful effect on all key biomarkers associated with inflammation, blood sugar and blood clotting. Oxidized LDL cholesterol was reduced by 33%, blood pressure dropped 8%, total blood lipids improved 14%, and the blood clotting marker fibrinogen dropped 26%. Systemic inflammation was greatly reduced and memory and cognitive function were improved. The study authors found the results to be exceptional, as there have been no other studies to examine the benefits of proper diet on such a broad range of health functions.
Paleo Diet May Hold Key to Diabetes and Heart Disease Prevention Extensive research shows that eating a diet that was consumed during the course of human evolution is the best way to prevent and treat diabetes and heart disease. During our 2.5 million year evolution humans ate natural foods such as fruit, vegetables, nuts, lean meat and fish. These food sources regulate blood sugar and insulin response as they are low in fast-releasing carbohydrates.
The results of research provided by a second Lund University study demonstrate that following a Paleo inspired diet for 12 weeks caused a 26% improvement in blood sugar levels, even when compared to the popular Mediterranean style meal. The absence of any grain-based foods provides the critical health benefits of the Paleo diet.
The importance of proper diet and reduced risk of diabetes, heart disease and dementia cannot be overstated. Researchers consistently show that a diet of unprocessed foods can provide protection from disease and reverse the progression of serious illness. Take advantage of this information to dramatically improve your biomarker profile and extend your natural lifespan.
