2. Leafy Greens

Once you enter your 40s, you should really listen to your mamma. Eat your greens! According to a registered dietitian at Ashley Reaver Nutrition LLC in Oakland, California, Ashley Reaver, dark leafy greens are abundant in vitamin A which can fight inflammation in the body.

When we age, the levels of inflammation begin to skyrocket, putting us at risk for developing stroke, certain types of cancers, and heart disease. Luckily, foods that are high in antioxidants such as leafy greens can prevent that from happening.
