STUDY: Calorie Restriction Improves Health

A new study found at science.org has found that calorie restriction provides incredible health benefits. The study didn't focus on type of diet but rest assured getting the proper balance of protein and a reduction in the overconsumption of carbohydrate have also been shown to improve health.

From the authors:

“We found remarkable changes in the gene expression of adipose tissue after one year that were sustained through year two,”

“This revealed some genes that were implicated in extending life in animals but also unique calorie restriction-mimicking targets that may improve metabolic and anti-inflammatory response in humans.”

My takeaways: reduce sugar intake and overall caloric intake and watch your health improve.
