InfoAging on Calorie Restriction

Fight Aging!

Do you want to live a longer life in good health? Simple practices can make some difference, such as exercise or calorie restriction. But over the long haul all that really matters is progress in medicine: building new classes of therapy to repair and reverse the known root causes of aging. The sooner these treatments arrive, the more lives will be saved. Find out how to help »

The always informative (if a bit conservative) InfoAging has updated its calorie restriction pages. Calorie restriction is the only current scientifically proven way to extend healthy lifespan. If you want to learn more about calorie restriction diets and how to get started, the Longevity Meme provides some introductory materials and suggestions. It's worth noting that a number of companies (like BioMarker Pharmaceuticals) are working on developing age retarding therapies based on the mechanisms of calorie restriction.
