The anti-aging benefit of eating less may hinge on one immune protein, Yale study finds
A Yale study suggests that the anti-aging benefits of calorie restriction may be linked to a decrease in the immune protein C3. Research on mice and analysis of human trial data indicate that moderate calorie reduction lowers C3 levels, potentially reducing age-related inflammation independently of weight loss. This finding opens avenues for drug targets to mimic calorie restriction's effects without severe dietary changes.
