what about fasting periodically, and/or overall CR?

[Guest guest]

I've just joined, and perhaps this issue is already well discussed.

But it wasn't mentioned in today's Washington Post article, and yet

I've read something about it somewhere -

namely, an extension of the " eustress " hypothesis - restricted

caloric intake being beneficial even if not prolonged - I seem to

recall an experiment in which the subject animals fasted one day,

then ate ad libitum the next day, and on and on - my memory is that

although they weren't as thin as the constant CR group, they lived

about as long -

has this been discussed here, and is anybody trying it for themselves?
