Avoid Red Meat And Processed Food For Long Life

A fast paced life has left almost negligible time for physical exercises, which is leading to obesity. Obesity is a major cause of diseases like diabetes, heart attack, high blood pressure and cholesterol levels etc. The most alarming fact is that people are suffering from these problems in their early ages. According to the experts, a combination of exercises and a balanced diet can lead to a healthy life.

Experts from the University of Bergen in New York have found a link between the kind of food we eat and our life expectancy. These experts have advised the non-vegetarians not to include red meat, chicken and other kinds of processed foods in their diet. Instead, according to the experts they can go for grains, legumes, green leafy vegetables, fruits and nuts in their diet. This study has advised the non-vegetarians that red meat and processed sugars are high in fats and salt. This high salt and fat quantity becomes the root cause of obesity, diabetes and cancer. These high quantities also lead to shorter life expectancy. Many also face the risk of premature deaths.
