The link was specific to theobromine and remained after accounting for caffeine and other related dietary compounds. Researchers used two DNA-based aging clocks, including one predictive of mortality risk, to measure biological aging. […]

Metabolic tune-up: How dietary restriction may supercharge cancer immunotherapy
A new study reveals that dietary restriction, which reduces calorie intake, can boost the cancer-fighting power of immune cells called T cells. The benefit comes from an increase in ketones, an alternative fuel produced when glucose is scarce, which enhances T cell stamina and function. This research provides a scientific mechanism for how controlled calorie […]
