The Payoff From A Successful Caloric Restriction Diet
• Constant Hunger• Abnormal Focus On Food (24hrs./day)• Loss of Libido (reproductive function)• Increased Life Expectancy
Payoff:– If, starting at age 50, you do CR successfully
for 30 years, then when you are 80 years old, you will function as though you were only 70.
~33% Retardation of Aging Rate
This is just NOT enough for most people!

Conclusions
• Americans are too fat – and getting fatter.• The best diet is to reduce caloric intake without reducing
nutritional intake.• Take high quality dietary supplements that include:
– Vitamins and Minerals (RDA)
– Fish Oil
– Vitamin E
• The benefits (if any) of serious CR diets are not worth the effort for most people.
• Exercise may help compensate for some of the negative health affects of obesity.
