RE: The Cure for Aging

Intermittent fasting is the most effective way to increase lifespan. It is often found in all organisms from yeast, rats, and humans that reducing food intake by 30% increases life expectancy by 30%, by significantly reducing the oxidative stress levels.

Got any reliable sources for that?

Having the original study would be great, because this article sounds like it's mostly beneficial because it helps lose weight and people at a healthy weight generally live longer anyway. Can't find a link to the original study though so it might have different results.

I think there's some data on research made on mice and I've heard of it. It'd still be bold to say it'd work on humans, increasing life expectancy by 30% :)

There's no data that shows this in humans, as far as I know. Other animals, yes. But thinking it works in humans is so far just conjecture.
