18.01.2022 FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Does long-term calorie restriction extend your lifespan and reduce the incidence of age-related chronic disease? In a new study published in the Nature group of journals, Communications Biology, French researchers have found that calorie-restricted lemurs live longer lives compared to lemurs on a standard diet. Is this translatable to the human model?... Read the paper here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s42003-018-0024-8
