"The most important foods for us are what I call foods that give rise to life. Foods that you can plant in the ground and in the harshest of conditions, will nurture a young plant to life. That’s what our bodies need with aging, and so beans, nuts, seeds, fruits, whole grains, and vegetables." — Dariush Mozaffarian, cardiologist and professor of medicine
