Eating less may not extend life
If you are a mouse on the chubby side, then eating less may help you live longer. For lean mice - and possibly for lean humans, the authors of a new study predict - the anti-aging strategy known as caloric restriction may be a pointless, frustrating and even dangerous exercise. view more (2009-01-23)
New Lifespan Extension Genes Found
New genes tied to lifespan extension in yeast have been identified by researchers from UC Davis and Harvard Medical School. view more (2005-10-03)
Calorie restriction may prevent Alzheimer's through promotion of longevity program in the brain
A recent study directed by Mount Sinai School of Medicine suggests that experimental dietary regimens might calm or even reverse symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). view more (2006-06-15)
Mouse Study: When It Comes To Living Longer, It's Better To Go Hungry Than Go Running
A study investigating aging in mice has found that hormonal changes that occur when mice eat significantly less may help explain an already established phenomenon: a low calorie diet can extend the lifespan of rodents, a benefit that even regular exercise does not achieve. view more (2008-05-14)
Agent in red wine found to keep hearts young
How, scientists wonder, do the French get away with a clean bill of heart health despite a diet loaded with saturated fats? view more (2008-06-04)
Calorie restriction in non-human primates may prevent and reduce Alzheimer's disease neuropathology
A new study directed by Mount Sinai School of Medicine extends and strengthens the research that experimental dietary regimens might halt or even reverse symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). view more (2006-09-18)
People who restrict calories have 'younger' hearts
Study is first to associate calorie restriction with delayed primary aging in humans. view more (2006-01-16)
The way you eat may affect your risk for breast cancer
How you eat may be just as important as how much you eat, if mice studies are any clue. view more (2009-08-04)
Researchers find connection between caloric restriction and longevity
For nearly 70 years scientists have known that caloric restriction prolongs life. In everything from yeast to primates, a significant decrease in calories can extend lifespan by as much as one-third. But getting under the hood of the molecular machinery that drives this longevity has remained elusive. view more (2007-09-21)
Alcohol and sleep restriction can affect young men's alertness and driving performance
Combining low-dose alcohol with moderate sleep restriction can have a significant adverse effect on young men's subjective alertness and performance behind the wheel. view more (2007-10-01)
Reduced diet thwarts aging, disease in monkeys
The bottom-line message from a decades-long study of monkeys on a restricted diet is simple: Consuming fewer calories leads to a longer, healthier life. view more (2009-07-10)
Caloric restriction appears to prevent primary aging in the heart
Eating a very low-calorie yet nutritionally balanced diet is good for your heart. Studying heart function in members of an organization called the Caloric Restriction Society. view more (2006-01-13)
Cell pathway on overdrive prevents cancer response to dietary restriction
Whitehead Institute researchers have pinpointed a cellular pathway that determines whether cancerous tumors are susceptible to dietary restriction during their development. view more (2009-03-12)
Substance in red wine found to keep hearts young
How do the French get away with a clean bill of heart health despite a diet loaded with saturated fats? Scientists have long suspected that the answer to the so-called "French paradox" lies in red wine. Now, the results of a new study bring them closer to understanding why. view more (2008-06-05)
Key to longer life (in flies) lies in just 14 brain cells
Two years ago, Brown University researchers discovered something startling: Decrease the activity of the cancer-suppressing protein p53 and you can make fruit flies live significantly longer. view more (2007-09-21)
Researchers find link between food odors and lifespan in fruit flies
Researchers hoping to learn why organisms tend to live longer if their intake of calories is restricted have made a startling discovery - in fruit flies, just the smell of food can have a negative effect on longevity. view more (2007-02-02)
Severely Restricted Diet Linked to Physical Fitness into Old Age
Severely restricting calories leads to a longer life, scientists have proved. view more (2007-10-25)
Researchers note differences between people and animals on calorie restriction
Calorie restriction, a diet that is low in calories and high in nutrition, may not be as effective at extending life in people as it is in rodents, according to scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. view more (2008-09-25)
Eat less or exercise more? Either way leads to more youthful hearts
Overweight people who lose a moderate amount of weight get an immediate benefit in the form of better heart health, according to a study conducted at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. And the heart improvements happen whether that weight is shed by eating less or exercising more. view more (2008-01-11)
Indigenous health experts reject MP's call for removal of alcohol restriction
Leading medical researchers from Australia's George Institute for International Health are surprised by recent statements made by a Western Australian Member of Parliament, Hon. Carol Anne Martin MLA, who is calling for the removal of the alcohol restrictions in the Kimberley towns of Halls Creek and Fitzroy Crossing. view more (2009-07-15)
