Calorie Restriction

Life Extension Foundation has published a very interesting article on caloric restriction and the usefulness of decreasing calory intake to promote better health and prevention of age related diseases.  Calorie restriction studies have been conducted and information is available to visitors.

The article does not say exactly what type of foods would need to be in the diet but it is extremely worthwhile reading and, I believe there are books or other information sources that can provide that information (recipes, foods etc.).

By all means, look into this straightforward, well written article and be sure to reference it going forward.
