AN age-defying 53-year-old has amazed people with her youthful looks that haven’t been enhanced with surgery.
Annamaria Kalebic shared how she swears by consuming anti-ageing food to wind back the clock.
She wrote: “Since adopting these lifestyle changes I’m feeling fitter & healthier than ever!
“There are many treatments and procedures you can have to fight the ageing process but I believe the best place to start is from within.”
She uploaded a video on her account sharing five tips on “reverse ageing”, and they are very easy to copy.
Her first tip was to try to mainly consume healthy whole foods, instead of buying processed items from the supermarket.

The second piece of advice goes hand in hand with this, and it is to cook meals from scratch instead of buying ready meals.
Annamaria then says you need to eat lots of plants and take up some form of strength training.
She demonstrated using a kettlebell to do some swings to keep in shape.
Her next tip was to increase your protein intake, and she showed a green smoothie she had prepared for herself.
