Ancient Grain STOPS Aging and Weight Gain

By Jack Taylor Posted January 21, 2018

These days, it seems like the mainstream offers a thousand bogus ways to stay young, healthy and trim.

And most of them are deadly drugs — at the first sign of aging, they’ll put you on dangerous statins and weight-loss pills.

But if you’ve ever tried any of these, you already know how frustrating, unhealthy and ineffective they can be.

Fortunately, it looks like there’s a better way to beat back the effects of aging without a prescription.

And all you have to do is eat more of an ancient grain.

Called the “mother of all grains” by the Incas, quinoa has been the building block of a healthy diet for thousands of years.

Loaded with protein, minerals and age-fighting amino acids, this simple seed has been scientifically proven to help fight cancer and depression.

Now scientists from Rutgers University have shown it can stop aging and weight gain, too.

For the experiment, researchers fed quinoa to worms and measured their aging markers, weights and life spans.

At the end of the trial, they found that the quinoa-fed worms had:

• Lowered inflammation markers
• Improved aging markers
• Decreased body fat
• And a significantly increased life span.

And this is great news for humans, too. Because the worms used in this study have similar metabolic genes to mammals like us.

Just imagine what reducing your weight and increasing your life span could mean for you.

Experts report that quinoa is so effective against aging because it contains a number of powerful antioxidants — special compounds that reduce inflammation and oxidation.

Quinoa makes a tasty addition to any meal or salad and can be found at your local grocer for about $5 a pound.
