Leading international scientists gathered at the University of Tokyo to share research and insights on how to remain youthful as we age. Tomas Prolla, Ph.D., co-founder of LifeGen Technologies and professor of genetics at the University of Wisconsin, presented some recent ...
To stave off aging, Americans spend billions of dollars every year on supplements, gyms, even therapists. Previous, well-publicized research had shown that restricting calories can increase the life span of creatures ranging from fruit flies to dogs, for reasons still unclear. But ...
Low calorie diets have been shown to extend the lives of various species, including dogs, mice, worms, fruit flies, and yeast. Published in the July 10 2009 issue of Science, the research reports better brain functioning too in the low-calorie study group ...

For 20 years, researchers have been studying the effects of feeding monkeys a reduced calorie diet. In short, they give some monkeys about 30% fewer daily calories than others. Healthy aging. In the study, researchers led by Richard Weindruch at the University ...
CHICAGO (Reuters) - A 20-year study of monkeys shows that a reduced-calorie diet pays off in less disease and longer life, U.S. researchers said on Thursday, a finding that could apply to humans.They said rhesus monkeys on a strict, reduced-calorie diet ...
A nutritious but calorie-restricted diet can increase life expectancy and reduce the risk of age-related diseases, including cancer, according to research published in the journal Science Thursday.The study, conducted over 20 years on dozens of rhesus macaque monkeys, provides new insight ...
A new study that found that a lower-calorie diet slowed the aging process in monkeys could be the best proof yet that restricted diets might do the same for humans.. "This [finding] doesn't give me hope that humans are going to ...
"You want something that's going to give you 10 more years of relatively good health and not 10 more years of frailty," says Matt Kaeberlein, a biochemist at the University of Washington in Seattle, who studies ageing, but was not involved ...
Rodents, yeast, and roundworms all have something in common: The team, led by gerontologist Richard Weindruch of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, began monitoring the animals when they hit 7 to 14 years old--monkey adulthood. The scientists gave the restricted monkeys vitamin ...
