Long-term calorie restriction is highly effective in reducing the risk for atherosclerosis in humans For all of you out there looking for THE anti-aging program, this is it. Time and again, calorie restriction without nutrient restriction shows much benefit to our markers of health. Of course, true to form, researchers are trying to find out […]
Calorie Restriction Promotes Mitochondrial Biogenesis by Inducing the Expression of eNOS Despite reading the ads and articles you see everywhere, the ONLY approach that has been shown to improve lifespan in mammals is calorie restriction without nutrient restriction. Period. However, the pharmaceutical companies are looking for what physiological pathways are triggered with caloric restriction so […]
Calorie restriction induces mitochondrial biogenesis and bioenergetic efficiency We’re at another article that illustrates the incredible complexity with which our bodies operate. As background, the only thing that has consistently shown to increase lifespan in mammals is calorie restriction without nutrient restriction. But the real reasons why this occurs have been unclear. In this particular […]
Undernutrition w/o malnutrition as a protective factor to prevent DNA damage in the elderly Despite the infomercials, emails and all the anti-aging miracles you get in the mail, the only thing that has consistently shown to extend lifespan in mammals in calorie restriction without nutrient restriction. This is an interesting study in that it is […]
Neuroprotective potential of the Bahadori leanness program: A “mini-fast with exercise” strategy This concept continues to intrigue me. Regular readers of Updates will know that I feel that the increase in mitochondrial number and function with caloric restriction w/o nutrient restriction is a potentially very powerful tool but hard to get compliance. There have been […]
