Calorie Restriction Post Mon Mar 12, 2012 6:55 pm
Elapsed Time: 00:00
  • Lap #[LAPCOUNT] ([LAPTIME])
    Calorie restriction, a diet high in nutrients but low in calories, is known to prolong the life of rats and mice by preventing heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and other diseases. A six-month study of 48 moderately overweight people, who each reduced their calorie intake by at least 25 percent, demonstrated decreases in insulin levels and body temperature, with the greatest decrease observed in individuals with the greatest percentage change in their calorie intake. Low insulin level and body temperature are both considered signs of longevity, partly because an earlier study by other researchers found both traits in long-lived people.

    If the above statements are true, they support which of the following inferences?

    a. Calorie restriction produces similar results in humans as it does in rats and mice.
    b. Humans who reduce their calorie intake by at least 25 percent on a long-term basis will live longer than they would have had they not done so.
    c. Calorie intake is directly correlated to insulin level in moderately overweight individuals.
    d. Individuals with low insulin levels are healthier than individuals with high insulin levels.
    e. Some individuals in the study reduced their calorie intake by more than 25 percent

    @williamwrost

    The energy supplements for fitness and health are many as all of us need but what about those who cannot afford to have it.consider the recession around the world, there are people dying of hunger all over the US and UK people donot have jobs, they donot have the basic amenities of life to live with, so how can u expect them to have fruits and all the luxury items to eat, when even they cannot afford to have the basic diet.

    pls provide some links on the topic:
