What is it, that’s so fearful about turning forty? Women often begin having weight problems, undergo mild depression and menstrual irregularities as they turn forty. Most men experience lowered libido, reduced muscle strength, chronic fatigue, and bloated abdomen mainly in their late forties. All these are signs of declining hormone levels and changing metabolism. This aging process can be further accentuated by day-to-day stress. The same diet which worked for you a decade ago would most definitely not work for you after you have crossed forty. As people age, they lose their health and this is reflected in their appearrance.

The lessening of hormones post forty is one of the reasons for accelerated aging. Your metabolism slows down. Your sugar cravings increase. You begin feeling less energetic. Your appetite for starchy food (Rice, Pasta, bread) may increase. At the same time your body needs fewer calories to get through the day.

While no one can stop the passage of time, you can control the damage and the way you look by taking advantage of the benefits of better nutrition. The way to deal with this is to make yourself more important than food. By cutting down on smoking, tea, coffee and alcohol consumption  one can retard the aging process and enhance the absorption of vital nutrients. Focus on the quality of food rather than quantity. Choose foods dense in nutrients. No matter how much you exercise and take vitamin supplements, your formula for fitness isn’t complete without proper nutrition. Proper nutrition accompanied with exercise and vitamin supplements helps regain health and beauty after years of abusive eating habits and lack of exercise. Good food habits activate the body’s innate immune system to reverse the aging process.

The Fit after Forty plan detoxifies the system which has been withstanding dietary assaults of several years. You are advised to consume nutrient rich foods rather than calorie dense to assist detoxification. In addition to consuming nutrient dense foods it is important to increase the fiber content of your diet by eating more whole grains, fruits, vegetables and whole pulses. Taking supplements of antioxidants along with the B-vitamins goes a long way in delaying the aging process.
