In general, there’s no one-size-fits-all diet that leads to longevity. This is because there are a wide variety of foods that are nutrient-rich. However, if you want to live a long, healthy life, there are a handful of foods you should avoid regularly consuming. 

On this episode of The Model Health Show, you’re going to learn about the top five foods you should not eat if you want to live longer. You’re going to hear the science on how consuming things like soda, ultra-processed sauces, and meat substitutes has the potential to harm your health and shorten your lifespan. 

While living a long, healthy life is often the culmination of building healthy habits, it is also the result of avoiding preventable diseases. Getting your diet in check can help you reduce your risks of inflammation, chronic diseases, and early death. I hope you enjoy this episode of The Model Health Show!
