讓人保持年輕的4種食物

Most of the time, when it comes to eating youth-boosting foods, we're talking about what to avoid: steer clear of alcohol (too dehydrating), reduce your sugar intake (could damage your collagen levels), use a little less salt (high sodium levels can lead to water retention and "puffiness").
很多時候，當我們談論到能使人年輕的食物時，我們通常說的是要避免吃什麼：遠離酒精（太使人脫水了）、減少糖的攝入（可能會損害你的膠原蛋白量）、少吃點鹽（高鈉含量會導致水分停滯和虛胖）。

But a much more fun (and delicious) way to sip from the fountain of youth is to actually nibble on a couple of nutrient-packed, antioxidant-heavy foods to keep your skin smooth and your brain buzzing.
但喝到青春之泉更有趣（更美味）的方法實則是多吃些富含營養的高度抗氧化食物，它們能使你的皮膚細膩光滑，讓你的大腦處於興奮狀態。

Avocado: Are you surprised, really? Everyone’s favourite fruit does more than just taste incredible smashed on toast with a poached egg; an excellent source of vitamin E, which does a fantastic job of preventing damage to collagen, avocadoes make for better skin and a happier, healthier heart and eyesight, too.
牛油果：你感到吃驚，真的嘛？這是大家都喜歡的水果，不僅僅是放在荷包蛋吐司上嚐起來美味，同時它也富含維他命E，維他命E可有效防止膠原蛋白受到損害，牛油果可使皮膚更好，能使人更開心，也能使心臟更健康、視力更好。

Brazil nuts: A fresh-faced complexion has a lot to do with skin elasticity, and Brazil nuts are chock-full of a mineral called selenium, which can help to improve just that.
巴西堅果：年輕的膚色與皮膚的彈性有很大關係，巴西堅果富含叫做硒的礦物質，能夠使你的皮膚煥發活力。

As a bonus, selenium can actually reduce your risk of skin cancer while preventing premature aging; grab a 30 g handful each day for a healthy hit.
額外福利：硒實際上可以降低患皮膚癌的風險，同時還能預防提前衰老；想要健康，每天吃30g巴西堅果吧。

Red grapes: Resveratrol is a super antioxidant, which, research suggests, helps to activate a protein that has been linked to health and longevity.
紅葡萄：白藜蘆醇是極佳的抗氧化劑，研究表明，它能激活與健康長壽有關的蛋白質。

It’s also believed to aid weight loss, by converting “white fat” into “beige fat” – which, we’re just saying, may mean that a glass of wine a night could help you lose weight.
同時，人們也認爲白藜蘆醇通過將“白色脂肪”轉化爲“米色脂肪”能有助於減肥，我們的意思是每晚一杯紅酒可有助減肥。

Salmon: Just like avocado, there doesn’t seem to be anything salmon can’t do, mainly thanks to essential fatty acids called omega-3s.
三文魚：和牛油果一樣，似乎沒有什麼是三文魚不能做的，這主要是由於三文魚含有叫做歐米茄3的脂肪酸。

These nifty little health bombs improve the skin’s flexibility and protects against wear and tear; a lack of healthy fats like omega-3s can result in dry skin and wrinkles. So eat up!
這種小小的極佳健康炸彈能夠提升皮膚的彈性，使皮膚免受疲憊和淚水的侵襲；缺少像歐米茄3的健康脂肪會導致皮膚乾燥，產生皺紋。所以吃起來吧！
