Would you like to have a longer and more fruitful life? If so, please don't fall for all the snake oil solutions out there.

A much better approach is to make small changes day in and day out that'll have a compounding effect over time. This is more sustainable and more realistic than anticipating an overnight anti aging cure.

The truth is that we simply can’t go back in time with a single pill or 48 hour miracle diet. And having these types of expectations will lead to some Massive disappointment.

So, without further delay, here are some super-foods that can help you live longer:

1. Nuts with monounsaturated fat: And if you want the biggest bang for your buck, stick to walnuts as they've the highest amount of omega-3 fats. Don’t get me wrong, nuts like almonds and brazil nuts are healthy, but walnuts need to be a part of your daily diet.

2. Organic cocoa: Harvard researchers found that an indigenous sector of a population drinking cocoa had less heart disease than the same population not drinking cocoa. The key here is to stay away from the commercial formulations as they tend to be loaded with sugar and fat.

3. Animal omega-3’s: You can get omega-3’s from plant sources. However, animal sources are more readily absorbed by the human body. Thus, for maximum effect I recommend marine sources such as wild salmon, unprocessed oysters and wild sardines. All of the above have the highest amounts of omegas with the smallest (negligible) amounts of toxins.

4. Alcohol: Your best bet here is going to be red wine. However, don’t anticipate the resveratrol to make any difference. After all, the negligible amounts of resveratrol in red wine will have Tiny if any effect on how you age. Instead, the biggest benefit here's the effect wine has on your arteries.

Now I firmly believe that the best way to have a lasting and profound effect on quality of life is through consistent changes that accumulate over time. Please don’t fall under the false pretense that you can simply take a pill and reverse aging from one day to the next.

And don’t wait too long to take action on this information. If you do, you might forget what you've learned!
