​ 
Based on research at, inter alia,

• Universite de Toulouse in Toulouse, France

&

• Imperial College London in London, UK

there are at least 10 different types of preservatives related like

• citric acid
• potassium sorbate
• lecithin
• sodium ascorbate
• potassium nitrate
• ascorbic acid
• potassium metabisulfite
• sodium nitrite
• total sulphits
• sodium erythorbate

 
With specific impact on

• hypertension

and

• cardiovascular disease.

 

​The impact of processed/ultra-processed food on our health and longevity is technically questionable. As this technical procedure comes with preservatives leading to health problems, scientifically demonstrated internationally.   

Such as
 

• Almonds

 
Those control blood sugar in terms of diabetes and cut down the risk of heart disease.
 
According to research inter alia at the

National Diabetes, Obesity and Cholesterol Foundation in New Delhi, India
 
They also reduce cholesterol as based on research at
- Lorestan University of Medical Sciences in Khorramabad, Iran

As well as
- Tehran University of Medical Sciences
and
- Shahid Behehsti University of Medical Sciences
(both in Iran’s capital Tehran)

Plus
- University of Nottingham in Nottingham, UK
 

• Pistachios

 
With antidiabetic properties.
 
According to research at
- Gazi University in Turkey’s capital Ankara
 

• Walnuts  

 
Those are not only cutting diabetes risk according to research at
- University of California in Los Angeles 

But also risk of cardiovascular disease as based on research at
British Nutrition Foundation in London, UK. 

Not to overlook
 

• Peanuts

 
Cutting down risk of heart disease as based on research at

• Southeast University in Nanjing, China

           &

• University of Turku, Finland

As you know from our medical publications and seminars, healthy diet (besides physical activity) is vital for our health and longevity.
 
However, including not only certain foods like vegetables and fruits, but also water for hydration.
 With more than 80% water plus many nutrients in foods.
 
Fortunate, we can cover both together, as demonstrated by the following pattern
​

by the
- Agricultural Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture
   and the
- U.S. National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health  

To start foods with up to high water content plus vital nutrients.
 
Such as

     *    Iceberg lettuce  

With more than 95% water plus nutrients such as
- carbohydrates/potassium/etc
. 

• Celery

 
Besides 95% water power along with
- vitamins A&K/folate/fiber/potassium/etc.

• Cucumbers

Along with 95% water containing nutrients in terms of vital minerals such as potassium/magnesium/calcium/etc.  

• Tomatoes

 
With close to 95% water plus
- vitamins C&K/folate/potassium/fiber/etc.

• Zucchini

 
With more than 94% of water plus nutrients such as
- vitamins A/C/K plus nutrients
- potassium/manganese/fiber  
 
Just like

• Romaine lettuce

 
With more than 94% water as well and nutrients such as
- vitamins A/C/K plus nutrients folate/fiber

• Spinach

 
With more than 92% water plus nutrients
- vitamins A/K + potassium/calcium/folate/iron/fiber

• Watermelon/flesh

 
With more than 91% water plus powerful nutrients such as
- vitamins A/B/C & copper/potassium/zinc

• Skim milk

 
With more than 90% water plus nutrients
- vitamin D/calcium/protein

• Strawberries

 
Equally with more than 90% water plus nutrients
- vitamin C/fiber

• Cantaloupe

 
With more than 90% water plus nutrient
- beta-carotene  

     *    Soy milk
 
Equally with more than 90% water plus nutrients
- vitamins B/D + calcium

• Broccoli

 
With 90% water plus nutrients
- vitamins C/K + potassium/fiber/iron

• Honeydew melon

 
With almost 90% water plus nutrients
- vitamin K/magnesium/folate

• Kale

 
Equally almost with 90% water plus nutrients
- vitamins A/C/K + calcium/fiber  

Similar to

• Peaches

 
With almost 90% water plus nutrients
- vitamins A/C/E/K + nutrients potassium/phosphorus  

Equally to

• Carrots

 
And its 90% water.
 
Plus nutrients
- vitamin K + potassium/fiber/folate

• Oranges

 
With more than 86% water plus nutrients
- vitamins B/C + magnesium/potassium/copper/fiber

• Pineapples

 
With 85% water plus nutrients
- vitamin B/C + potassium/magnesium/manganese  

Not to overlook finally our famous

• Apples

 
With at least more than 84% water plus nutrients vitamin C/fiber
​

​Unlike manifold assumptions, hydration is no less important for our health and longevity than nutrients we find in natural foods. As demonstrated in this blog, scientifically verified.
