YOUR GREY MATTER, MATTERS!
PREVENT WITH US
Having an active life with a healthy and balanced diet is crucial to stay healthy when you’re 65 years old or more and prevent silver generation’s typical diseases.
And because prevention is always better than cure, start with the food you eat: make sure you enrich your diet with more mushrooms and berries, the allies of health of all age groups.
MUSHROOMS
Antioxidant, remineralizing and full of vitamins, mushrooms strengthen your immune system and prevent cardiovascular diseases and are very good for our diet. Source of vitamin B, D and selenium, they represent a valid ally in preventing sarcopenia and osteoporosis, both often showing up as we age, causing loss of muscle mass and bone density. For this reason, Versilfood is donating part of its selling proceeds to sustain Argento Vivo, Humanitas for Research Foundation’s project is dedicated to health and research of new treatments for people over 65.
BERRIES
With a high nutritional content, berries can prevent and reduce symptoms of lots of pathologies and, if consumed regularly, they contribute to maintaining good health conditions. Thanks to their antioxidant properties, berries can reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases like diabetes, cancer, heart, aging and neurodegenerative diseases.
For this reason, Versilfood is donating part of its selling proceeds to sustain Argento Vivo, Humanitas for Research Foundation’s project is dedicated to health and research of new treatments for people over 65.
