The Secret to 10 Extra Healthy Years? It’s on Your Plate.

An expert explains emerging longevity science.

What if you could add a decade of vibrant, healthy living—simply by changing what’s on your plate?

In his latest webinar, Dr. Austin Perlmutter shared powerful new research showing that dietary shifts alone can add up to 10 years of life expectancy. Even better, these same changes directly support a younger, more resilient immune system.

The biggest wins come from:

  • More: Whole grains, nuts, legumes, vegetables, and colorful fruits.

  • Less: Processed meats, refined grains, and sugar-sweetened drinks (the worst offenders for immune and metabolic health).

Why does this work so well? Every bite you take influences key “longevity pathways” in your body—reducing inflammation, balancing your gut microbiome, and even helping to clear out worn-out “zombie cells” that make your immune system sluggish.

Dr. Perlmutter also revealed an often-overlooked secret: the beneficial microbes on regeneratively grown produce can enrich your gut microbiome and strengthen immunity. Your immune health starts in the soil!

The takeaway is simple: nutrient diversity, plant-powered polyphenols, and quality food sources aren’t just good for you—they’re an investment in decades of healthy living.

Your immune system is your body’s front line. Feed it daily with the variety, color, and vitality it needs to protect you now and for years to come.
