The effect of dietary restriction on reproduction: a meta-analytic perspective

7 Oct 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Dietary restriction (DR), a reduction in the amount of food or particular nutrients eaten, is the most consistent environmental manipulation to extend lifespan and protect against age related diseases. Current evolutionary theory explains this effect as a shift in the resolution of the trade-off between lifespan and reproduction. However, recent studies have questioned the role of reproduction in...
