Our goal is to help peopl e of a l l ages live longer a n d

healthier lives simply by:

eat ing fewer calor ies

maintain ing adequate nutr i t ion

Graph adapted f rom: Weindruch R, et al. (1986). "The

retardat ion of aging in mice by diet ary restr ict i on:

longevity, cancer, imm unity and l i fet ime energy

intake." J o u r n a l o f N u t r i t i o n , April , 116(4), pages641-54.

Since the 1930s extensive scientific research has

shown that calorie restricted (CR) diets improve

health and extend l if espans of nearly every species

tested, including worms, spiders, rodents, dogs, cows

and monkeys. We bel ieve i t is l ikely t hat people who

carefully adopt a CR diet will see similar results.

The CR Society support s the eff ort s of people who

pract ice CR for current healt h, f uture longevity, or

other benefits; those curious about or interested in

understanding the effects of the diet; and those

interested in t he development of re lated,science-based healt h-enhancing and l ife-ext ension

technologies. Our mail ing lists provide a r ich forum

for such topical discussions.
