Spanish scientists from the Center for Combating Obesity and Nutrition at the University of Navarra have told La Vanguardia that there are certain foods that can cause premature aging. It is primarily about food with a high degree of processing. The study involved 886 people.

Scientists analyzed the relationship between respondents’ nutrition and processes in their bodies.
The aging of body cells leads to the use of bakery products, carbonated drinks, corn flakes with sugar, various desserts, semi-finished products and snacks. This food is rich in salt and fat, but poor in vitamins and fiber.
The use of such food reduces the terminal processes of chromosomes – teleomeres. During life, they are shortened, but the use of the above products accelerates this process. Those people who consumed refined foods three times a day accelerated the process of reducing teleomeres twice.
The results of this study confirmed earlier findings by scientists about the causes of premature aging in Spain, France and the United States.
