The expert listed the products that people over 50 should definitely include in their diet.

Endocrinologist Ekaterina Yang talked about them on her Telegram channel.

Protein deficiency after 50 years has a negative effect on a person's appearance. For example, the skin ages faster and becomes more flabby.

At the same time, muscles weaken and bones become more fragile, increasing the risk of fractures.

This is why you should include foods rich in protein in your diet.

We are talking about fish, meat, poultry. But Yang also clarified that red meat should not be eaten more than 1-2 times a week.

The doctor also clarified that protein digestibility decreases with age. To achieve this, lemon juice, spices (cinnamon, turmeric, cloves), fresh herbs and vegetables should be added to dishes.

And to reduce cholesterol, which also becomes a problem after 50 years, the doctor recommends eating garlic.

Purple berries help fight premature aging. They contain powerful antioxidants.

The diet should also include young potatoes with skin, spinach, parsley, dried apricots, cabbage, and radishes.
