Fruits that should be eaten in moderation for the health of blood vessels and brain have been named

Some popular fruits, including grapes, oranges, mangoes, and bananas, should be consumed in moderation by those who seek to maintain their health and slow down age-related changes in the body. This opinion was expressed by doctor Irene Pinilla.

As reported by BAKU.WS with reference to the Daily Mail, the specialist explained that grapes are rich in antioxidants that help cells resist inflammation and damage associated with aging. However, due to their high glycemic index, this fruit can rapidly raise blood sugar levels, so excessive consumption is not recommended.

According to the foreign expert, a similar situation is observed with oranges. Despite their high content of vitamin C, which supports the immune system, they contain a significant amount of natural sugars. The doctor also advised including mangoes and bananas in one's diet without excess.

At the same time, Pinilla emphasized that there is no need to completely eliminate sweet fruits from one's diet. It is only important to maintain balance and ensure that they do not make up the main part of the daily diet.

Separately, the specialist listed products that can have a beneficial effect on the process of healthy aging. This list included kiwi, avocado, and blueberries. The doctor singled out the latter in particular, noting its low glycemic index and high amount of antioxidants that help protect the body's cells, including brain cells.

Pomegranate also received a high rating in the informal "fruit ranking for longevity." According to the expert, the substances it contains help maintain the health of blood vessels and the cardiovascular system. Apples were also named beneficial for the body due to their high fiber content, which promotes normal digestive function and supports intestinal microflora.

In addition, according to the doctor, strawberries hold an important place in the diet. The berries contain antioxidants that help reduce chronic inflammation and protect the skin from negative age-related changes.
