Best Foods to Eat in Your 20s, 30s, and Beyond

like always.....cop paste from yahoo website......by: Joy Bauer


You've been told how to dress for your age, but what about how to eat for your age? Here's a list of some of the "best bets" to include in your diet as you transition from post-college life to middle-age... and your nutrition needs evolve.

The 20s: Building a Strong, Healthy Future
You can't live off of coffee, alcohol, and pizza forever (ah, the good ol' college days). As you transition into the working world, now is the ideal time to lay down a healthy foundation for the decades ahead.

Best foods:

Skim latte - You're a grown up now! Trade in your sugary mocha-frappaccino for a simple yet sophisticated latte made with nonfat milk. You still get a hearty dose of "stay alert" caffeine, and the milk provides a hit of calcium and protein for strong bones (they're still growing, even in your 20s).

Oatmeal - Say goodbye to rainbow-colored, sugar-coated breakfast cereals from your school days and hello to healthy whole grains. Oatmeal is a quick, satisfying breakfast that will add a jolt of nutrition to your daily menu--and it will only take seconds to make if you nuke it in the microwave. -- kite dlm peringkat mencuba mknan ala2 oatmel nih...msh xbrapa nk suke...

Spinach - Time to start eating vegetables! Spinach is one of the most nutrient-dense veggies on the planet, so adding some of these leafy greens to your meals is a one-stop way to dramatically boost the quality of your diet. Plus, you can buy the leaves in convenient, ready-to-use sacks, so it's a terrific pick for young adults who don't want to waste a lot of time in the kitchen. -- salah 1 sayur bdaun yg kite sukeee

The 30s: Boosting Energy

Between building your career, running after kids, and managing your social calendar, every day is a frantic whirlwind that can leave you feeling totally sapped. You need energy-boosting snacks that are easy to grab between meetings and meltdowns.

Best foods:

Nonfat yogurt - Yogurt offers both quality carbohydrate and protein in one convenient package. The carbs fuel your brain, while the protein stabilizes blood sugar so you stay alert and focused. -- pon mknan yg blh diterima tekakku

Peanut butter sandwich - Toss a peanut butter sandwich on whole wheat bread into your bag for an easy meal or snack on-the-go. The bread supplies slow-burning carbs to keep your system revved, and the peanut butter provides protein and healthy fat. -- owwwwwwwww me dont like peanut....

Homemade trail mix - Create your own nutrient-packed snack to take on daily travels by combining healthy whole grain cereal, nuts, and/or dried fruit in a snack bag (if you have an insatiable sweet tooth, you can throw in a tablespoon or two of semisweet chocolate chips, too). Your homemade mix doubles as a terrific emergency snack for cranky kids.

The 40s+: Protecting your Heart and Brain

Perhaps your latest check-up revealed that your cholesterol levels are creeping upwards, or maybe your memory isn't quite as sharp as it used to be. Some strategic additions to your diet will help keep your body's most vital systems functioning at optimal levels.

Fatty fish - If you haven't already done so, it's definitely time to make fatty fish like wild salmon, sardines, and trout a regular feature on your weekly menu. Fatty fish is the best source of heart-healthy omega-3s, which decrease inflammation throughout your body and improve your cholesterol profile. -- kite adalah kureng mkn ikan...kena usaha mkn ikan lebih nih...cayok...tp ikan skg adalah mahal kn???

Beans - Beans are one of the most concentrated sources of fiber, which lowers LDL or "bad" cholesterol and reduces the risk of heart disease. Plus, they're rich in folate, a vitamin that may help slow cognitive decline. --- wah...inipon kite xbape suke...huhuhu

Berries - Animal studies (and preliminary trials in humans) suggest that regularly consuming antioxidant-rich berries can help preserve memory and cognitive function as you age. Double bonus: Berries, especially blackberries and raspberries, are an excellent source of fiber, so they'll benefit your ticker, too. -- ini sukeeeeeeeee tp fresh berries adalah sukar didapati kt mall biase2...xkn nk g mall super duper hebat semata2 nk beli menda alah nih kn kn kn???


p/s: tips kt atas nih rsnye xbrape sesuai utk pendiet yg tegar...sesuai utk yg diet ala-ala jerrr..
