Fasting and Calorie Restriction Effects on Lifespan: Insights from a 960-Mouse Study with Human Biomarker Validation

TL;DR: A large-scale mouse study (n=960) found that both fasting and calorie restriction (CR) extended lifespan, with 40% CR showing the most dramatic results (36% increase in median lifespan). The 40% CR group also maintained youthful physical activity levels throughout life. Key biomarkers like lymphocyte count and red blood cell distribution width (RDW) strongly predicted […]

Higher Whole-Body Flexibility Associated with 60-85% Lower Mortality Risk: New Evidence from Flex Index Study

TL;DR: A meta-analysis shows that both grip strength and whole-body flexibility are independently associated with reduced all-cause mortality risk. Higher flexibility scores were linked to significantly better survival rates in both men and women, even after adjusting for various health factors, though causation hasn’t been established. Key Statistical Findings Methodology Limitations The study suggests flexibility
