My rosacea almost disappeared a few months into raw CR. Inflammation is controlled with less cooked foods. They haven't mentioned the importance of o2 in all disease and aging. Low o2 environment causes cancer and aging. Raw foods are loaded with o2, whereas cooked foods and animal products have almost none. We were also meant to swim and drink moving water, which is loaded with h2o2, another source of o2.
all this talk sounds like an infomercial YOU CAN DO THIS, AND HOW AMAZING WOULD IT BE IF YOU COULD... AND BLAH BLAH BLAH, shame that people who call themselves scientists talk about non specific wishful thinking crap
One discovery that could simultaneously delay or stop diseases? Sounds like a great loss to several companies. Would that discovery, if any, be allowed to surface?
There is evidence that completely fasting one day and then stuffing yourself the next can do the same for extending a human life. I suppose you'd still be opposed to the restriction of calories though.
Remember, many serious CR practitioners eat 1900 calories instead of 2500 (the recommended governmental caloric) calories per day. A 600 calorie cut is not much at all, especially if you are eating the right foods.
Because "rates" imply the incidence of something inversely proportional to time. Delaying something means you are saying you have the same incidence of something over a greater unit of time, hence the rate is less. In reality, calorie restriction not only delays disease onset, but entirely prevents many types of pathologies. You have fewer ways to die, which is also one of the reasons you live longer.

caloric restriction may work but it could also be carbohydrate restriction aswell....

It's pretty infuriating when we're spending billions on war and barely allot and money to longevity research.

Is longevity research now a right guaranteed in the Constitution?

Yes, the Constitution guarantees you the right to research longevity. Fool.

Calorie restriction would be nice if it weren't for the "restriction" part.

Please provide links to this "evidence". I would think that "yo-yo-ing" would be worse than getting the same number of calories on a daily basis.

It's not so bad. If you pick the right foods the bulk of what you eat can actually increase.

I'm not sure I understand. How does increasing longevity cut disease rates rather than simply delaying disease onset?
