Just follow one of the four guidelines below each week to overhaul your diet and begin eating healthy without all the drama of a typical diet. <p style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: 0px; text-decoration: inherit; padding: 0px;"><strong style="font-weight: bold;">Who It&rsquo;s For:&nbsp;</strong>Do you want to eat healthier? Do you need to make some changes in your diet, but don&rsquo;t know where to start? Try the Longevity Diet. You&rsquo;ll be eating real foods that are delicious. You&rsquo;ll need to invest some time in cooking and grocery shopping, but none in calorie counting. We&rsquo;ll give you simple rules, you follow them and you&rsquo;ll be healthier every day. The mission of the plan is to get you on the road to eating healthier (this is not a weight loss plan).</p> <p style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: 0px; text-decoration: inherit; padding: 0px;"><strong style="font-weight: bold;">What You&rsquo;ll Do:&nbsp;</strong>We give, then we take away. Each week, you&rsquo;ll make two changes to your diet. One change will involve adding something to your diet, the other change will involve removing or reducing something. After four weeks, you&rsquo;ll have eight simple rules about the foods you should and should not eat. That&rsquo;s all you&rsquo;ll need to remember &ndash;- eight things:</p> <p style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: 0px; text-decoration: inherit; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><ul style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: 0px; text-decoration: inherit; position: relative; z-index: 0; padding: 0px;"><li style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 18px; text-decoration: inherit; list-style-type: disc; padding: 0px;"><a style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-decoration: underline; color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;" href="http://longevity.about.com/od/antiagingdiets/a/eat_veggies.htm">Double the Veggies, Hold the Cheese and the Milk (week one)</a></li><li style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 18px; text-decoration: inherit; list-style-type: disc; padding: 0px;"><a style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-decoration: underline; color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;" href="http://longevity.about.com/od/antiagingdiets/a/eat_nuts.htm">Demote Meat and Go Nuts (week two)</a></li><li style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 18px; text-decoration: inherit; list-style-type: disc; padding: 0px;"><a style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-decoration: underline; color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;" href="http://longevity.about.com/od/antiagingdiets/a/eat_fish.htm">Get Fishy, No White Foods (week three)</a></li><li style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 18px; text-decoration: inherit; list-style-type: disc; padding: 0px;"><a style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-decoration: underline; color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;" href="http://longevity.about.com/od/antiagingdiets/a/eat_fruit.htm">Love Fruit, Avoid Chemicals (week four)</a></li></ul><strong style="font-weight: bold;">Results to Expect:&nbsp;</strong>You&rsquo;ll eat better, feel better and -- although not designed as a weight loss plan -- may even shed a few pounds.
