Diet may play an important role in how the body ages by affecting key biomarkers linked to metabolic health, blood sugar regulation, cardiovascular function, oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation. While no single diet can guarantee a longer life, dietary patterns rich in nutrient-dense whole foods, adequate protein, healthy fats, fibre, and plant compounds may support healthier aging and better long-term resilience.
