Long-term calorie restriction may slow normal brain aging
As the brain ages, cells in the central nervous system experience metabolic dysfunction and increased oxidative damage. These cellular issues impair the ability to maintain the myelin sheath (the protective covering around nerve fibers), which leads to age-related white matter degradation.

ugh. bad week at work and thus my #diet. I been eating my feelings, so lots of #fastfood at lunch instead of a healthy (and cheaper) bagged sammich. Not losing this week's quota that's for sure.

Cutting key amino acids from mouse diets triggers weight loss through heat burning
It's not pleasant to shiver from the cold, but for some, it has the appeal of making the body burn more energy as heat than when staying in a warmer environment. According to several studies, exposure to cold is a reliable way to boost energy expenditure in mice and humans. This process of burning energy through heat loss is called thermogenesis.
