Tag: Cr diet

Decades of research in various organisms, from yeast to primates, suggest that sustained calorie restriction can delay the onset of age-related disorders and, in some cases, extend lifespan. Chronic caloric restriction is a dietary regimen centered on a consistent, moderate reduction in daily calorie intake without causing malnutrition.

Extensive animal research shows that a 30-50% calorie restriction (CR) without malnutrition can increase lifespan and reduce chronic disease incidence. In humans, this dietary regimen reduces energy intake while maintaining optimal nutrition to promote metabolic health and potentially healthy aging.

Decades of scientific research, primarily in animals, have consistently shown that reducing caloric intake by 20–40% while maintaining optimal nutrition can significantly extend both average and maximal lifespan. This longevity-enhancing dietary approach is known as the CR diet, or Calorie Restriction. However, the feasibility and precise effects of this diet in humans remain complex and require careful consideration.
