The Importance of Fasting and Caloric Restriction in Slowing Down Aging

Fasting and caloric restriction have shown to be effective in slowing down aging and promoting longevity. By slowing down cell division and promoting autophagy, fasting helps prevent the formation of senescent cells, which contribute to aging. Caloric restriction also helps regulate cell metabolism, reducing inflammation and promoting overall health. Both fasting and caloric restriction can be achieved through different dietary approaches, such as intermittent fasting or low glycemic diets.
