Why starving makes you live longer
Why starving makes you live longer
01/02/2004 07:11 AMMIT researchers have gained insight into why sever calorie-restriction
in a wide variety of organisms leads to life-extension.
"These findings provide a simple model for activation of Sir2 and
extension of life span by calorie restriction," the authors write.
"Our findings suggest that the NAD/NADH ratio can serve a critical
regulatory function, determining the life span of yeast mother cells.
A reduction in this nucleotide activates Sir2 to extend the life span
in calorie restriction."
In previous research, Guarente found that rather than a slower
metabolism leading to a slower rate of respiration, it turns out that
respiration in yeast cells under calorie restriction goes up, not
down. "A high respiration rate is intimately connected with calorie
restriction in yeast," he said. "A high respiration rate activates
SIR2. When respiration goes up, NADH goes down and SIR2 goes up. When
SIR2 goes up, longevity happens."

to fold a T-shirt in 2 seconds. The technique works for
long sleeve shirts
