RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – As you reach 40, paying greater attention to your metabolism, muscle mass, hormone levels, mood, and weight is essential because from that age on, we are more likely to suffer from health issues we did not have to deal with in our youth.
Fortunately, it is also a time for adjustment with regard to long-term well-being and health.
In addition to exercising, getting enough sleep, and avoiding stress, eating nutritious food can help prevent or mitigate potential health complications and illnesses. The question is: after all, what foods should you include on your menu from the age of 40?
