In 2009, Elizabeth H. Blackburn and her team received the Nobel Prize of medicine for the discovery of “how chromosomes are protected by telomeres and the enzyme telomerase.” Discovering that telomeres delay the ageing of the cell, if the telomeres are long the cells can live longer, but if the telomeres are short, life could be shortened. So the question arises, what affect telomeres? The answer depends on different factors, but all of them are relate with a healthy lifestyle. Our lifestyle affects our telomeres, specially our diet, specially what we eat everyday.

Then, does the food that we eat affect really our longevity? Could we live longer and healthier if we consume certain foods?
