The vegetarian diet increases life expectancy

The vegetarian diet increases life expectancy, the British scientists assure
Refusal of the meat and fish use can become key to longevity as the British scientists have found out. The strict vegetarian diet, thanks to the lowered maintenance of proteins and calories, slows down processes of ageing and considerably increases chances to live minimum till 100 years.

Scientists recognised earlier that the superlow-calorie diet, at the rate of about 70 percent from recommended norm, makes considerable positive impact on health and life expectancy of organism. In Great Britain till 110 years lives everyone who eats on extreme diet on the verge of undereating, the data of experts testifies. Experiments on animals, including monkeys, have shown that if is for 40 percent less that the risk of development of warmly - vascular diseases falls for 40 percent and it is possible to live almost on third longer.

New find of the British researchers was that it is completely not obligatory to eat less. It is necessary to reduce simply receipt in organism of some substances, in particular protein. It it is possible to reach, having excluded from the diet meat, and some kinds of nuts, thus volume of eaten food it is not necessary to change fish.

Series of experiences on fruit front sights has shown also that life expectancy is influenced by change in diet of structure of amino acids. The greatest influence on longevity renders methionine. This amino acid plays the important role process of formation of all proteins. Both that, and with that naturally abound fish and all kinds of meat, and also, for example, sunflower seeds beniseed and the Brazilian nut. In spite of the fact that gene of the person it is more difficult, than at fruit fly, in 4 times, set of genes with the basic biological functions at them the general. Conclusions of the British scientists have proved to be true and after experiments on mice.

However, doctor Matthew Pajper from University - College of the London university underlines, "all is not so simple to tell" eat more nuts "or" eat less nuts "and will live longer - it is a question of achieving correct balance of proteins". He has underlined that the special attention in the light of new opening should be given high-protein to diets of sportsmen and bodybuilders.
