Hello Everyone,
I'm not trained at all in methodology in the hard sciences, so I'm hoping someone can help me here.
I've always heard that calorie restriction and slowing down metabolism will extend lifespan. Obviously, Ray Peat believes otherwise - a high metabolism is a sure sign of health, and that eating more while staying trim is actually optimal.
So what exactly is wrong with the methodology on these studies of calorie-restricted rats that live far longer than the control group?
