7- Preserved Meats
According to the most recent studies on preserved meats, the nitrates and nitrites used for preservation put your body at risk for cancer. This is because they produce free radicals, which cause oxidative damage to cells and your DNA. Enough free radical damage creates an environment conducive to cancer or another chronic disease, and it also prematurely ages your skin.
So, instead of bacon, hot dogs, and sausages, choose vegetarian alternatives or lean, organic meat over processed kinds. This one is going to hurt. However, in the end, the cleanest and least processed foods will always maintain your youthful appearance and attitude.
