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 »

As noted in the New York Times, the beneficial effects of low-calorie diets are available at any age (in flies at least). This follows up on similar research in mice that shows calorie restriction brings on beneficial changes in genetic expression very rapidly. It doesn't matter at what age the diet is started. You do have to stay on the diet to maintain the beneficial effects, however. What are you waiting for? Try calorie restriction today! You'll feel better and live a longer, healthier life.
