Make Way For the Nutritarian Plant-Rich Diet & How it Could Help Women Age Healthier & Reduce Inflammation

On this International Vegan Day we can reveal a new study from Northern Arizona University, the Nutritional Research Foundation, and the epigenetics company TruDiagnostic showing women who follow a nutrient-dense, plant-rich diet, known as the Nutritarian diet, may age more slowly and have less inflammation than those eating a standard American diet (SAD).


This plant-rich diet, comprising foods like vegetables, beans, berries, and nuts, showed significant health benefits in the study group of women who had been on it for over five years.

Researchers used DNA-based markers to measure biological aging and found the Nutritarian group aged at a slower pace compared to women on the SAD. This group also had lower levels of C-reactive protein, a key marker of inflammation, pointing to overall lower body inflammation. Additionally, these women had better immune profiles, with higher levels of beneficial immune cells and fewer pro-inflammatory cells.


The findings suggest choosing a diet rich in plant-based foods could be a powerful way for women to support their health, slow down the aging process, and reduce chronic inflammation. This approach aligns with existing research linking plant-based eating to reduced risks of heart disease, diabetes, and other chronic conditions.


In simple terms, adding more nutrient-dense plant foods to your meals may do more than just boost your daily nutrition; it could help you age more gracefully and keep your body’s inflammation in check for better long-term health.
