Subject: Slow Aging by Eating Less
There's a multi-billion-dollar industry devoted to products that fight signs of aging, but moisturizers only go skin deep. Aging occurs deeper at a cellular level and scientists have found that eating less can slow this cellular process. Recent research published in Molecular & Cellular Proteomics offers one glimpse into how cutting calories impacts aging inside a cell. The researchers found that when ribosomes the cell's protein makers slow down, the aging process slows too. The decreased speed lowers production but gives ribosomes extra time to repair themselves.
Key Takeaways:
- One cell part, the ribosome, is responsible for the production or synthesis of that necessary protein.
- Researchers have found a correlation between the aging process and the speed with which ribosomes work.
- If the ribosomes slow down it appears to give them more time to repair themselves
