But there are still those changing gene expressions due to calorie
restriction as loose ends from the other month. Unless of course the upshot
of those changing expressions is just to to deposit less fat. Or having less
fat leads to the changing gene expressions. Anyone have a good suggested
mechanism as to why less fat at those levels prolongs lifespan? Is it a
cause or effect? What would the other bits in the chain be?
I'm all for stirred pots.
