The doctor named ways to slow down aging

Nutritionist, Ph.D., doctor of preventive integrative medicine Rimma Moisenko told how to slow down the aging process.

In an interview with Radio 1 on Thursday, May 21, the specialist gave recommendations to people over the age of 65. She noted that it is important to control the level of total protein in the blood: if the indicators decrease, the proportion of animal protein in the diet should be increased and, if necessary, enzymes should be activated.

The expert emphasized that it is worth adding fats to breakfast, such as oily fish or olive oil, to support the functioning of the gallbladder and improve food absorption. Eggs, she says, are best eaten soft-boiled, as the liquid yolk is easier to digest.

Moisenko also recommended soaking cereals to reduce the content of substances that interfere with the absorption of vitamins, and using natural digestive stimulants such as lemon juice or apple cider vinegar. If there are signs of heaviness after eating, as she noted, the doctor may temporarily prescribe enzyme preparations.
