July 10 Calorie Restricition = Longer Life?That's what they say. Restrict the calories, live longer. It's more complicated, but in layman's terms calorie restriction seems to be one of the keys to prolonging aging (though, obviously not CURING aging, that's a whole different matter). So, I've been restricting my calories. The most common method is intermittent fasting. This involves planned periods of no eating. The usual period is 15 to 18 hours. In other words, I would eat a solid, filling, healthy dinner like chicken and spinach massala, and then not eat until lunch the following day. It's pretty simple, not terribly difficult to do once you begin to plan the fasting periods, and it definitely helps with the weight loss. The other method is to simply decrease the amount of food you eat per meal. Have several small meals per day, and bring your total calories in at roughly 60% to 40% of what you would normally eat. This method usually leaves me hungrier for a longer portion of the day because I feel I've never had enough food at any given meal to feel in any way sated. There's a learning curve to the calorie restriction process, just like there's a learning curve to the caveman diet, or to damage control supplementation or any lifestyle altering project. Until I've got it figured out, I'll keep reading about how to deal with stress, and ordering vitamins online. Cheers!
