MODERATE NUTRITION EXTENDS LIFE

MODERATE NUTRITION EXTENDS LIFE

A decrease in daily nutrition by 30% of normal results in an increase in life expectancy by one and a half times.

Employees of the French National Research Center conducted an experiment involving lemurs. Scientists reduced the daily amount of food consumed by a test group of animals by a third. The other group ate the same as before. The study lasted ten years. It involved adult animals of approximately the same age.

As a result, it turned out that the average life expectancy of those lemurs whose food was reduced by a third increased by 50%. When the last lemur died in the second group at the age of 11.3 years, a third of the participants who were on the “diet” remained alive. If animals that ate 30% less lived on average to 9.6 years, then those that ate the usual amount of food lived to only 6.4 years.

Interestingly, the increase in life expectancy in this experiment was accompanied by a decrease in the number of diseases such as cancer and diabetes. In addition, lemurs that ate more moderately showed significantly better brain function.
