Study Reveals 5 Foods for Longevity and Gut Health

A recent study published in 'Nature Food,' involving over 120,000 participants, suggests that a high diversity of dietary flavonoid intake is associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality and major chronic diseases. Building on these findings, a gut health scientist highlighted five specific foods rich in these beneficial compounds that can contribute to longevity and improved gut health. The recommended foods include green or black tea, with an aim for two to three cups daily. Red onions, particularly when quick-pickled in apple cider vinegar, are also emphasized for their flavonoid content. Pink Lady apples are noted as containing a high concentration of flavonoids. Additionally, consuming a variety of berries is advised to support diverse gut microbes. Finally, dark chocolate with a minimum of 75% cocoa is recommended, as higher cocoa percentages correlate with greater flavonoid content. These dietary recommendations are presented as actionable steps for individuals seeking to enhance their long-term health.
