What foods can make you live longer?

Certain foods rich in specific molecules can potentially enhance longevity by supporting mitochondrial function and reducing oxidative stress:

1. PQQ: Found in cacao, boosts mitochondrial count and supports energy production.

2. Polyphenols: Found in berries, grass-fed meats, and cheese, enhance mitochondrial function and reduce inflammation.

3. Coenzyme Q10: Found in liver, red meat, and fatty fish, essential for mitochondrial energy production and acts as an antioxidant.

4. L-carnitine and carnosine: Found in red meat, support fat burning, muscle preservation, and reduce oxidative stress.

5. Phycocyanin: Found in spirulina, supports mitochondrial biogenesis and has antioxidant properties.

6. EPA and DHA: Found in salmon, sardines, and cod liver oil, improve mitochondrial function, reduce oxidative stress, and have anti-inflammatory effects.

Incorporating these foods into your diet may increase mitochondrial health, improve energy production, reduce inflammation, and potentially slow down aging processes.
