"Uncovering the Surprising Impact of Low-Calorie Diets on Human Aging"

Caloric restriction has been shown to have complex effects on aging, with a recent study finding that participants on a restricted diet initially experienced more rapid telomere loss compared to those on a standard diet, but after two years, their telomere loss slowed down. This highlights the complexity of how caloric restriction affects telomere length and biological aging. Despite this ambiguity, the study has also revealed other health benefits of calorie restriction, such as reduced "bad" cholesterol and blood pressure.
