But a new analysis of a study by researchers at Duke Health suggests another method may actually work at a physiological level: calorie restriction. Calorie restriction slows aging in worms, flies and mice. The Duke team wanted to test if it could have the same effect in humans, specifically regarding a concept called biological aging. “Biological aging is the gradual and progressive deterioration of systems in the body that occurs with advancing chronological age,” said Daniel Belsky, Ph.D., the study’s lead...
